Moreover, personality traits are one of the psychological constructs associated with psychosomatic symptoms. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of integrative therapy on distress and psychosomatic symptoms in female patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction with type D personality. Methods: The present study was semi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test, and follow-up design with a control group. The statistical population in this study included all the patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders who referred to the Institute of Psychology Hamdam Hamrah in 2020, 24 patients were selected by targeted sampling method (patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction, apart from the gastrointestinal cancer patients, who had a high de-personality score) and were randomly divided into two groups of experimental and control with 12 patients in each group. Data were obtained using the type D personality scale (DS-14), ROME III questionnaire, psychological distress scale, and depression anxiety stress scale-21 (DASS-21). Data analysis was performed using repeated measure analysis of variance by SPSS version 22. Results: Descriptive findings of psychological distress variables were obtained in the experimental group in the pre-test (40.08±7.75), post-test (.25±7.59), and follow-up (28.33±6.45). Furthermore, descriptive findings psychosomatic symptoms were obtained in the pre-test (49.17±15.65), post-test (42.25±10.36), and follow-up sessions (40.33±9.28), showing a decrease in the values of these variables in post-test and follow-up sessions. The results indicated that integrative therapy was effective in decreasing distress (P<0.001) and psychosomatic symptoms (P<0.001) in female patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction with type D personality. Conclusion: It can be concluded that integrative therapy effectively reduces distress and psychosomatic symptoms of female patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction with type D personality and improves psychological problems in female patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction.

Male sexual dysfunctions manifested by disorders of sexual desire (hypoactive and hyperactive), disorders of erection (erectile dysfunction), disorders of ejaculation (premature, absent/delayed and painful ejaculation, disorders of orgasm, and failure of detumescence). Conventional medicine is the knowledge, skills, and practice of holistic health care and recognized and accepted for its role in the maintenance of health and the treatment of diseases. It is based on indigenous theories, beliefs, and experiences that are handed down from generation to generation. Conventional medicine is practiced in many countries; it has always been part of the cultural and religious life of Indian people. Herbal treatments are the most popular forms of traditional medicine and are highly lucrative in the international marketplace. Today, more than 80% population of the developing countries depends on plants for their medical needs. Therefore, the increasing search for medicinal plants used in the treatment and management of male sexual dysfunction has necessitated. There are many herbal drugs that have been used for the treatment and management of male sexual dysfunction with varying degrees of success such as Tribulus terrestris, Withania somnifera, Eurycoma longifolia, Ginkgo biloba, and Myristica fragrans. Based on historical experience in traditional system of medicines, herbal medicinal plants are recommended for the treatment and management of male sexual dysfunction, and few of them have been scientifically validated. Recently, preclinical screening models including use of small animals such as rats and mice have been developed for better assessment of the pharmacological potential of medicinal plants against male sexual dysfunction. The present article has summarized the preclinical screening parameters with their significance including mating performance analysis, changes in reproductive organs index, reproductive hormonal estimations, sperm analysis, and histoarchitecture investigations.
