would you consider female with a height of 5'6" inches to be of a tall stature?

Question

Answer 1

No, just average: 5'6" is about 1-2 inches above average in the usa for an adult female. In other parts of the world, average height may be higher or lower. Height changes with age so to really answer the question i would need the age of the female.

Answer 2

Tall: No. The average female is 5 ft 4.5 inches. 5-6 is not much taller. I'd consider 5-10 or more tall for a woman.

Answer 3

Yes: I would consider this a female of tall stature, because I am of below average height. Statistically, this is just slightly taller than average height.

Answer 4

Varies: It seems like alot, but usually no more than 1-2 table spoons full.

Waxs young,wanes old: Libido "waxes"(pre-menopausally) with lubrication and desire and "wanes" post-menopausally due to a decline of testosterone which comprises 2% of women's natural hormones. Some women never notice any changes in libido as the adrenal glands are the main sources of their testosterone rather than the declining ovary post-menopausally.

Answer 8

A history.: Painful intercourse; painful gynecological examination; and open discussion with your doctor about sexual functioning.

See a Sex therapist: Female sexual dysfunction is diagnosed by an interview with a sex therapist or perhaps by your ob-gyne or pcp during an office visit.

Answer 10

Multiple options: For diagnosis see:http://www.uptodate.com/contents/sexual-problems-in-women. Lifestyle changes like weight loss, exercise and avoiding drugs like alcohol can help. Sex/couples therapists are helpful (ever since Masters and Johnson of 1970's) and underused (see http://www.aasect.org/ ).
