For those who're unaware, during the 19th & early 20th centuries, husbands took their wives to physicians to be treated for hysteria. Keep in mind that medical science was far more primitive.

Today we know hysteria as sexual frustration, and hysteria treatment as the female orgasm. Before medical knowledge of human sexuality, sexually frustrated women were thought to suffer from mental ailment.
