Our study aimed to investigate the  plateau phase of  sexual response cycle in patients with mania treated in Institute of Mental Health - Bach Mai hospital. This is  a cross-sectional descriptive study, included 60 patients diagnosed with mania according to ICD-10 diagnosis criteria (including diagnostic codes: F30, F31.0, F31.1, F31.2). Results: the  mean age manic patients was 33.3 ± 11.2 years old. There were more women than men, and the female/male ratio was about 1.3/1. Manic patients were easily sexually aroused (86.7%). The rate of not being easily sexually aroused was significant higher in women than in men (23.5% vs 0%, p = 0.002). Most of manic patient found that they rarely lose their interest in sex (61.7%). Majorityof them wanted to have genital stimulation (58.3%). The percentage of women who wanted stimulation in the chest position was higher than of men (p < 0.01). Men mostly wanted to be stimulated in the genitals compared to women (88.5% vs 35.3%, p < 0.01).
