  • Title: Women with chronic fatigue syndrome and sexual dysfunction: past, present, and future.
    Author: Blazquez A, Alegre J, Ruiz E.
    Journal: J Sex Marital Ther; 2009; 35(5):347-59. PubMed ID: 20183003.
    Abstract:
    Sexual dysfunction is a problem experienced by patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Some studies indicate that CFS has a direct influence on sexual dysfunction, particularly hypoactive sexual desire. At this time, data on this subject are scarce, but the concept is emerging that CFS interferes with several aspects of the patients' life, particularly sexuality. Further randomized controlled studies are needed to improve our knowledge of sexual dysfunction in CFS, to define the true impact of this condition on the patient's sex life, and to improve the therapeutic management of this aspect of the disease.
