Daily perceived stress and sexual health in couples with sexual interest/arousal disorder
Findings highlight dyadic processes in sexual health whereby one partner's daily stress was associated with lower sexual health for both partners. Stress might orient partners away from sensitive support provision and interfere with intimacy, which is crucial to sexual health. Interventions fostering sexual health in couples with SIAD should include a focus on stress management.
