Clinical sexology is a field of study that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of sexual dysfunctions.
At present, there is a growing demand for these services in our primary care medical centre in
Vallirana, Spain, where a clinical sexology office has been established to help individuals with their
sexual issues. In just one year, this office has helped over 200 people to overcome their sexual
problems. The medical team at the centre has recognised the importance of offering this service
and, as a result, they now routinely refer patients to the clinical sexology expert for the best possible
sexological counselling.
This sexology office provides a safe, confidential and professional environment for individuals to
receive help with their sexual issues, regardless of their gender. The majority of patients served thus
far have been male (92%). Reasons for patient consultations have been erectile dysfunction 76.9%,
hypoactive sexual desire 13%, premature ejaculation 10%, Peyronie’s disease 6.9%, dyspareunia 3%,
vaginismus 2.3%, anorgasmia 2.3% and delayed ejaculation 1.5%. Given that patients with erectile
dysfunction are the ones who most frequently seek consultation to resolve their issue, it is necessary
to say that our success rate in alleviating this pathology is above 85%.
In conclusion, the creation of a clinical sexology office within a primary care medical centre in Vallirana
is an important step towards addressing the growing demand for sexual health services in the area.
By providing a confidential and expert-led environment, this sexology office is helping individuals
overcome their sexual problems and improve their overall sexual health and wellbeing. With over 200
people already benefiting from the services provided and the medical team’s commitment to referring
patients to the sexology expert, it is clear that this consult is making a positive impact on the lives of
those who use it.
