内罗毕——议会收到一项请愿书，要求将男性性欲低下和女性性欲减退障碍（HSDD）认定为残疾。\n\n该请愿书于周三提交给参议院，主张应将性功能障碍视为公共卫生问题而非纯粹的私人事务，并指出其影响延伸至心理健康、家庭稳定和生殖健康。\n\n请愿人Benson Kibore博士拥有内罗毕大学兽医学学士学位和应用微生物学（病毒学）硕士学位，目前正在非洲拿撒勒大学攻读法学学位。他认为，根据2025年《残疾人法》，这些病症符合残疾的法律标准。\n\n他主张，严重的性功能障碍会产生长期的生理和心理后果，包括抑郁、关系破裂和生殖能力下降，因此理应获得法律承认并获得国家支持。\n\n在请愿书中，Kibore博士引用了相关研究，表明勃起功能障碍正越来越多地影响年轻男性。他参考了Onyango等人于2026年发表在medRxiv上的一项研究，该研究发现，内罗毕平均年龄为27.4岁的年轻男性中，有10.4%的人经历过勃起功能障碍。\n\n他还指出卫生部在2025年12月发布的警告，提醒公众注意滥用西地那非产品（通常作为伟哥销售）的风险，并表示日益普遍的自我药疗趋势使使用者面临严重的健康风险。\n\n请愿书进一步指出，许多女性患有性欲减退障碍，这是一种以持续性欲低下为特征的病症，会导致情绪困扰并紧张亲密关系。

原文原文 / Original Text

Nairobi — Parliament has received a petition seeking to have male low libido and female Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD) recognised as disabilities.

The petition, submitted to the Senate on Wednesday, argues that sexual dysfunction should be treated as a public health concern rather than a private matter, saying its effects extend to mental health, family stability and reproductive wellbeing.

The petitioner, Dr Benson Kibore, who holds a Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine and a Master's degree in Applied Microbiology (Virology) from the University of Nairobi and is pursuing a law degree at African Nazarene University, contends that the conditions meet the legal threshold for disability under the Persons with Disabilities Act, 2025.

He argues that severe sexual dysfunction has long-term physical and psychological consequences, including depression, relationship breakdowns and reduced reproductive capacity, and therefore deserves legal recognition and access to state support.

In the petition, Dr Kibore cites research indicating that erectile dysfunction is increasingly affecting younger men. He references a 2026 study by Onyango et al. published on medRxiv, which found that 10.4 per cent of young men in Nairobi, with a mean age of 27.4 years, experienced erectile dysfunction.

He also points to a Ministry of Health advisory issued in December 2025 warning against the misuse of sildenafil products, commonly marketed as Viagra, saying the growing trend of self-medication has exposed users to serious health risks.

The petition further argues that many women suffer from Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder, a condition characterised by persistently low sexual desire that can cause emotional distress and strain intimate relationships.
