Defective sexual adjustment can be managed more easily when there is some understanding of the respective roles of psychogenic and endocrine factors in sexual behavior. Millions of men and women are in need of help. The problems are discussed under the headings of maleness and femaleness, sex interest in the female, sexual inadequacy, and sexual gluttony. Only after differentiation of the psychogenic and endocrine factors can proper therapy be started.
