Resumen :
ntroduction: People with any psychiatric disorder tend to have difficulties in responding sexually. However,sexual dysfunction (SD) is usually under-recognized, even the tightly hormonal and neuronal common connexions through the brain-sex axis. Multiple sources of resistance to SD assessment and intervention persist. Areas covered: The present review aims to underline the feasibility to introduce SD evaluation in patients with any psychiatric disorders, evaluating the potential mutual benefits of their management. Expert opinion: Women and men living with mental disorders frequently display sexual difficulties; however, some of them consider sexuality as a relevant parameter of their quality of life. In fact, SD as a side effect is a frequent reason for stopping the intake of medication. What is more, a holistic approach integrating sexual function could foster a better understanding of mental pathologies due to a common origin of pathogenesis. This could improve care quality, in keeping with the global tendency toward the development of personalized medicine. Consistently, the integration of SD assessment is highly recommended in mental health, all the more so when a psychotropic drug is prescribed. An expected consequence would be a reconstruction of the healthcare professional's consideration for the sexuality of people experiencing mental disorders.
