[Sexual disturbances during the treatment with neuroleptics in patients with schizophrenia and schizophrenia spectrum disorders].

Sixty male patients with schizophrenia and schizophrenia spectrum disorders were studied in the first five years of disease. Characteristics of psychosexual development and sexual behavior were reviewed. Sexual disorders (mostly the decreased libido) developed in patients during the worsening of mental state and were aggravated during the treatment with neuroleptics. The disturbances of ejaculation appeared during the treatment with risperidone and olanzapine but not with quetiapine. Peculiarities of structure and dynamics of sexual disorders in patients were revealed.
