Solution

The correct option is A Honeymoon disease

Honeymoon disease or honeymoon cystitis refers to a disease that affects women who experience intercourse after a long period of abstinence.
The physical act causes a woman’s urethra to come in contact with bacteria from the genitals, anus or from the penis or fingers. After contact is made, it’s easy for bacteria to travel up into the urinary system and cause an infection.
This is one of the reasons that women experience more UTIs than men.
The ideal way to avoid sexually related UTIs is to urinate right before and after intercourse.

Cushing's syndrome is a hormonal disorder caused by high levels of the hormone cortisol in the body.

Sleeping sickness disease is caused by infection with the flagellate protozoan Trypanosoma brucei gambiense or T. brucei rhodesiense transmitted by the tsetse fly.

Erectile dysfunction refers to the inability to maintain an erection for successful copulatory act.
