Introduction
Hemodialysis is renal replacement therapy. However, it is associated with various complications. Sexual dysfunction is one of them. It is estimated that 25%-64% of female patients on hemodialysis have sexual dysfunction worldwide. This impaired quality of life further leads to anxiety and depression. Around 22.8%-39.3% of patients on hemodialysis are depressed while 27% have a major anxiety disorder. In Pakistan, the incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is 100 per million people.
