Sexual health and well-being: A framework to guide care
Abstract
Although the acceptance of sex positivity centering pleasure and justice has grown, clinical and public health strategies for sexually transmitted infection management have remained focused on risk and adverse outcomes. To promote sex-positive health care practice in clinical settings and beyond, health care practitioners should use an integrated, patient-centered approach to sexual health. These strategies include initiating discussions, continued sexual health education, providing informative material for patients, and knowledge of different communication strategies. Patient-provider interactions might be enhanced by using such methods.
