Description:

This guide offers a framework for discussing sexual health issues to help complete the overall picture of your patient’s health. Sexual health can greatly impact overall quality of life. The health impacts of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) can range from irritating to life-threatening. Discussing a person’s sexual health offers the opportu- nity for counseling and sharing information about behaviors that may increase STI risk.

A sexual history should be taken as part of routine health care, as well as when there are symptoms or physical exam findings suggestive of STIs. In short, a sexual history allows you to provide high-quality patient care by appropriately assessing and screening individuals for a broad range of sexual health concerns.
