Abstract

The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the proposed revisions and rationales for diagnosis of sexual dysfunctions in the DSM-V which will be finalized by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in the near future. The remarkable key points in the DSM-V in the classification of sexual dysfunctions and the new proposed diagnoses like hypersexual disorder, genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder and sexual interest/arousal disorder will also be discussed.
