Depression as an outcome or cause of sexual dysfunctions: A review study

Main Article Content

Abstract

Abstract
Considerable research has indicated that there is a relationship between the occurrence of depression and sexual
dysfunctions. This study aims to provide an overview of the issue of depression as an outcome or cause of sexual
dysfunctions, by providing a review of results and inferences from various research works. In line with this aim, document
analysis method as a qualitative research method was used in the study. Various published documents we re analysed after a
comprehensive literature review on the research topic. The results of the present study suggest that there are
complementary research results in the literature showing that depression may be regarded both as an outcome and a cause
or precedent of sexual dysfunctions. Implications for further research and practices are also provided.
Keywords: Depression, qualitative research, review, sexual dysfunctions.
