A Study on Sexual Dysfunction Prevalence Across Nepal
In Nepal, discussions about sexual health are often overshadowed by deep-rooted social stigmas and a lack of comprehensive research. Despite its critical importance to individual and societal well-being, sexual health remains a taboo subject, hindering open dialogue and awareness. To address these challenges, Society for Local Integrated Development Nepal (SOLID Nepal) is embarking on a vital study aimed at exploring the prevalence and risk factors of sexual dysfunction among adults in Nepal. This research seeks not only to illuminate the current state of sexual health in the country but also to pave the way for informed interventions and policy changes that can enhance the quality of life for countless individuals.
