Sintesi	The FSFI is a 19-item multidimensional self-report instrument designed to assess sexual function in women across the lifespan. Developed by Rosen and colleagues in 2000, it measures six core domains of sexual response and has become a gold standard in both clinical and research settings for evaluating female sexual dysfunction.	The FSDS is a brief self-report measure designed to assess psychological distress specifically related to female sexual dysfunction. Originally developed by Derogatis and colleagues and published in 2002, the revised version (FSDS-R) comprises 13 items measuring distress about sexual concerns, with particular utility in identifying women who seek treatment for sexual problems versus those with asymptomatic sexual dysfunction. It is widely used in clinical practice and research to distinguish distress-inducing sexual dysfunction from normative sexual variation.
