Lust refers to the feeling of wanting to have sex, while arousal refers to the physiological changes from the initiation to the end of sexual intercourse.
Sexual desire disorder is related to a lack of interest in sex, while arousal disorder is related to having sexual desire but the body does not reach a state of excitement.
