%X The article proposes a critical reflection, if you want to subordinate, in front of the hegemonic
discourse both in the field of health sciences as in the prevailing political-economic
field, around the process of medicalization and Pharmaceuticalization in western
societies, emphasizing what has been called «disease mongering», exemplified in the
case of female sexual dysfunction. From the review and analysis of current scientific
articles and sociological criticism, it is argued abaut the socio-historical contemporary
process that has become a «pharmaceutical culture» as well as agents, devices and
strategies that allow their production and reproduction. The issues problematized in the
document have to do with the production of meaning and practices associated with the processes of health and disease, as well as its orientation and definition from the field
of power established by the medical establishment, the pharmaceutical industry and its
lucrative drug business.
