Daily sex remedied difficulty in reading (8)

I believe the answer is:

dyslexia

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'difficulty in reading' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both states of affairs as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'daily sex remedied' is the wordplay.
'remedied' is an anagram indicator.
'daily'+'sex'='dailysex'
'dailysex' anagrammed gives 'DYSLEXIA'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dyslexia that I've seen before include "Reading impairment" , "Reading disorder" , "Impaired ability to learn to read" , "Word-blindness" , "Difficulty with reading words" .)
