Abstract
To diagnose FOD, clinicians assess the level of associated distress through individualized patient interviews with no standardized tool. The term “distressed” is a medical construct and did not resonate with participants when describing their experience. participants used “frustrated” as an emotional descriptor to their sexual experience and scored high on question 15 of the FSDS-DAO. This study demonstrates the FSDS-DAO, specifically question 15, correlates well with the clinician diagnosis of marked distress and may be an appropriate tool for evaluating treatment benefit in the FOD population.
