R. Taylor Segraves

Robert Taylor Segraves (born 1941) is an American psychiatrist best known for his work on sexual dysfunction and its pharmacologic causes and treatments.

He attended the Baylor School in Chattanooga, Tennessee and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from Vanderbilt University in 1963. Segraves received his M.D. there as well. He completed his residency in psychiatry at the University of Chicago and earned a Ph.D. from University of London. Segraves is professor of psychiatry at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine and chair of the department of psychiatry at MetroHealth medical center.

He was a member of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders task forces on sexual disorders for the DSM-III-R, DSM-IV and DSM-IV-TR editions. He is editor of the Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy and on the editorial board of the International Journal of Impotence Research.

Much of Segraves' work focuses on female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD). Noting that "somehow depression and libido are interconnected," Segraves has examined the interplay between antidepressants and libido. He has conducted pilot studies and clinical trials on drugs that show promise in improving female sexual response, including bupropion.
