Purpose

Responsible for:

  • Review the current state of knowledge in sexual medicine.
  • Develop algorithms and widely accepted strategies for diagnostic and therapeutic management of the various areas of sexual medicine.
  • Identify, evaluate, and endorse optimal international questionnaires and instruments (symptom scores) which aid in the evaluation of sexual medicine.
