Summary "Older women may have an increased sexual response owing to a reduced fear of pregnancy, the end of menstrual distress and no longer needing contraception; however, with increased age comes associated sexual problems for both men and women." "Written by experts in the field, Sexual Health and the Menopause is a concise, readable, pocket-sized book full of up-to-date information on topics that are often hard for both practitioners and patients to discuss. Areas covered include taking a sexual history, hormone replacement therapy & pharmacotherapy, sex therapy & sex aids, male problems that impinge on a woman's sex life, sexually transmitted diseases and many others." "Sexual Health and the Menopause is packed with useful information for GPs, gynaecologists, genito-urinary physicians, clinical psychologists, geriatricians and nurses in primary and secondary care."--BOOK JACKET
