Paraphilia

Paraphilia: Paraphilias are a variety of complex psychiatric disorders which are manifest as deviant sexual behavior. For example, in men the most common forms are pedophilia (sexual behavior toward children) and exhibitionism (exposing one’s body in public setting). Men with paraphilia are usually treated with psychotherapy, antidepression medications, and medications that alter hormones, particularly testosterone (male sex hormone).
