Orgas-mic disorder is the recurrent delay in, or absence of, orgasm following normal sexual excitement. Hypoactive sexual desire disorder is the persistent or recurrent deficiency or absence of sexual fantasies and desire for sexual activity. Vaginismus is an involuntary constriction of the outer one third of the vagina that prevents penile insertion and intercourse.
