Though sexual medicine is probably among the oldest of medical
specialties, in fact not much was spoken about the subject till
Kinsey published his first report in 1948. Speaking of sex was not
considered a taboo by ancient civilizations, but this has not
continued into the modern era. Herein lies the principle
problem...patients and even doctors are not willing to openly
discuss sexuality and sexual health. Healthcare professionals also
fail to discuss these pertinent issues due to a lack of time,
resources and general fear of causing offense. More importantly,
there seems to be a lack of good training. Societies like the
International Society of Sexual Medicine and European Society of
Sexual Medicine (ESSM) are actively taking up the cause and
furthering research into this particular field. Considering that
the prevalence of male and female sexual dysfunction in the general
population ranges between 2 and 10%, the need of the hour is to
train more doctors to professionally practice sexual medicine. Good
textbooks on sexual medicine for primary healthcare providers are
few and far between. The ESSM has come out with a working syllabus
but a more concise text is still lacking. This book, Sexual
Medicine - Principles and Practice, aims to bridge that gap by
presenting scientific principles in the treatment of male and
female sexual dysfunction, while also highlighting numerous recent
advances. Reviewing basic principles like assessment of male and
female sexual function and/or dysfunction, along with sex therapy,
it offers an essential reference guide for physicians, surgeons,
gynecologists, urologists, and all those wish to practice sexual
medicine
