Abstract
The author presents data and illustrative excerpts from 1,000 letters relating to health and personal concerns that were sent to his column in a college newspaper. There were 532 letters expressing sexual concerns, 65 percent of which raised questions about anatomy and physiology. A comparison of the distribution of problems of sexual dysfunction in this study with that of an earlier study involving older patients showed very different distributions. The author points out the need for sex counseling and education for young people who are sexually active and discusses the unique problems involved in treating this population.
