Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is age related, progressive and highly prevalent, affecting up to 20% to 43% of women in the fertile age, and 48% of the older postmenopausal women. Pelvic floor disorders are among the most important and yet neglected medical contributors to womens' sexual dysfunctions.
Various degrees of dyspareunia are reported by 15% of coitally active women, and 22.5–33% of postmenopausal women. Vaginismus occurs in 0.5–1% of fertile women. However, mild hyperactivity of the pelvic floor, that could coincide with grade I or II of vaginismus may permit intercourse causing, though, coital pain.
