INTRODUCTION

After a century of development in the field of sexology and decades of attempts to establish the field of sexual medicine, the first examination that led to the qualification as Fellows of the European Committee of Sexual Medicine (FECSM) was held in December 2012.

AIM

This study aims to describe the first European specialists in sexual medicine, their clinical practice, motivation, and professional self-identification.

METHODS

A web-based survey of the first FECSM on demographic data, data on the practices of their work (gender of clients, setting, and time frame), and reasons for entering the sexual medicine (five-point Likert rating of motives and open question on other reasons) was conducted.

MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE

Gender, religion, specialty, region, and their association with professional practices of the first FECSM.

RESULTS

The first FECSM have a wide range of experience in the field of sexual medicine (0-30 years) and were mainly men (79%) and urologists (56%). Only 15.5% had other qualifications related to sexual medicine and 60% self-identified as sexual medicine specialists. Only a small proportion of the professional time was dedicated to the practice of sexual medicine. The primary speciality influenced the gender of their patients seen, setting of work (couple vs. individuals), and time spent with patients. Only a minority managed sexual problems in women; hypoactive sexual desire is treated by 41% of FECSM and dyspareunia by 17%. The participants were motivated by the pleasure of knowing new things and desire to understand and to help patients, whereas prestige, finances, and own sex lives are less important.

CONCLUSIONS

The first FECSM are very diverse in terms of age, culture, religion, and primary specialty. Their practice is strongly influenced by their primary specialty, and this needs to be taken into account in future development of the speciality.

引言

在性学领域经过一个世纪的发展以及数十年建立性医学领域的尝试之后，2012年12月举行了首次欧洲性医学委员会成员资格考试。

目的

本研究旨在描述首批欧洲性医学专家、他们的临床实践、动机以及职业自我认同。

方法

对首批欧洲性医学委员会成员进行了一项基于网络的调查，内容包括人口统计学数据、工作实践数据（客户性别、工作环境和时间范围）以及进入性医学领域的原因（动机的五点李克特量表评分以及关于其他原因的开放性问题）。

主要观察指标

首批欧洲性医学委员会成员的性别、宗教、专业、地区及其与职业实践的关联。

结果

首批欧洲性医学委员会成员在性医学领域拥有广泛的经验（0至30年），主要为男性（79%）和泌尿科医生（56%）。只有15.5%拥有与性医学相关的其他资质，60%自我认定为性医学专家。只有一小部分专业时间用于性医学实践。主要专业影响他们所诊治患者的性别、工作环境（夫妻治疗与个体治疗）以及与患者相处的时间。只有少数人处理女性性问题；41%的欧洲性医学委员会成员治疗性欲减退，17%治疗性交困难。参与者的动机是对了解新事物的乐趣以及理解和帮助患者的愿望，而声望、经济和自身性生活则不太重要。
