- Abstract
- Sexual function is an essential part of quality of life in adults. However, sexual dysfunction (SD) in stroke survivors is a common but under-recognized complication after stroke. It is frequently neglected by patients and clinicians. The etiology of post-stroke SD, which is multifactorial indudes anatomical, physical and psychological factors. Complete return of sexual function is an important target for functional recovery after stroke, so dinicians need to be aware of this issue and take a lead role in addressing this challenge in stroke survivors. Accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment of post-stroke SD should be routinely incorporated into comprehensive stroke rehabilitation. This narrative review article, outlines the anatomy and physiology of sexual function, discusses various factors contributing to post-stroke SD, and proposes directions for future research.
