Physician aid: Decreased Sexual Desire Screener (DSDS)
Categories: Medical Professional News
Posted: June 19, 2022
Note to Health Care Provider: The Decreased Sexual Desire Screener1(DSDS) is a brief,
validated tool designed to assist in the identification of premenopausal patients who may
suffer from acquired, generalized Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD). The DSDS is not
a screener validated for self-diagnosis by the patient. Instead, the DSDS may be used by an
HCP as part of a comprehensive clinical examination during which the patient’s current
medical status and history and all other relevant factors are evaluated.
