Scope
An official publication of the International Society for Sexual Medicine, Sexual Medicine publishes multidisciplinary research to understand sexual health in diverse populations and a variety of contexts (e.g. intrapersonal, interpersonal, and societal). Sexual Medicine will consider quality manuscripts on any topic in sexuality/sexual health. Specifically, we publish manuscripts on basic anatomy and physiology pertaining to human sexuality, pharmacology, clinical management of sexual dysfunction, epidemiological studies in sexuality, psychosexual and interpersonal dimensions of human sexuality, clinical trials, sexual health policy, sex and society, and the practice of promoting sexual health. Our scope is broad and our intended audience is any and all individuals and organizations interested in human sexuality and sexual health. Sexual Medicine has a particular interest in exploratory studies, research germane to groups and regions that have been historically under-represented in the sexual health literature, and research relying on mixed methods.
The open access format of Sexual Medicine ensures that accepted manuscripts will be rapidly published and fully accessible by interested healthcare professionals worldwide. The open-access format has particular value for science that is of immediate interest to lay communities and non-clinician professionals who are interested in sexual health (e.g. social workers, educators, policy makers).
