Chemsex, a specific form of sexualized drug use (SDU), has rapidly increased in the last decade. This phenomenon could result in a complex public health issue because of the heterogeneity amongst socio-psychological profiles of the practitioners, leading to the difficulty to target specific populations. Healthcare professionals need to be aware of this practice and its related risks to provide care adapted to the individual who consults. Here, we suggest that better knowledge of this field can help to improve prevention measures and provide information with a non-judgmental and respectful approach to those who practice chemsex.

性化药物使用(SDU)是一种特定形式的性行为,在过去十年中迅速增加。由于实践者的社会心理特征存在异质性,这一现象可能导致复杂的公共卫生问题,从而难以针对特定人群。医疗保健专业人员需要了解这种做法及其相关风险,以便为咨询者提供个性化的护理。在这里,我们建议更好地了解这一领域可以帮助改善预防措施,并以非评判和尊重的方式向那些进行性化药物使用的人提供信息。Bolmont M、Tshikung ON、Trellu LT。性化药物使用,公共卫生的当代挑战。性医学杂志 2022;19:1210-1213。
