Sexual problems and post-traumatic stress disorder following sexual trauma: A meta-analytic review.
Ciarán O'DriscollEsther FlanaganPublished in: Psychology and psychotherapy (2015)
The measurement of sexual problems is overlooked in psychological treatment RCTs for sexual trauma. Current treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from sexual trauma do not appear to be addressing sexual problems. Integrated treatments for comorbid sexual problems and PTSD treatment may be warranted. It is imperative that in future, RCTs that examine people with PTSD from sexual trauma use outcomes of sexual problems.
