Disability and Illness: Multiple Sclerosis or MS

Multiple Sclerosis or MS Introduction:
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the central nervous system. A number of sexual issues can arise for a person with MS that can in turn affect sexual functioning. On an emotional level, the stress of having MS can affect sexual desire levels and functioning. On a physical level, the way in which MS affects the nervous system can alter how a person with MS experiences sexual arousal. Medications to treat MS can also affect sexual functioning, as can the symptoms that accompany an MS episode. Information about this, and suggestions for overcoming obstacles to a healthy, enjoyable sex life for people with MS can be found in this channel.
