what is sexual health

Talking about sex and sexual wellness can be an uncomfortable topic for many people, especially teenagers. That’s why it’s so important to have a safe and confidential place where people of all ages can go to get discreet treatment, guidance, advice about birth control, and on all matters relating to sexual health.

Sexual Health Clinics such as Pearl Chemist Group’s Sexual Health Clinic in London aim to take the anxiety and shyness out of talking about sex, sexual behaviour, and overall sexual health. Our compassionate and non-judgmental healthcare experts will give you the confidential and discreet information and treatment you need so you have the confidence to have a healthy intimate relationship with your partner.

The bottom line is that sexual health encompasses much more than just reproductive or medical issues, it empowers individuals to have open, honest, and healthy intimate relationships with their partner. Let's find out more.

What is Sexual Health?

To have good overall health and well-being, it’s important that we pay attention not only to our physical health, but also to other aspects such as our emotional, mental, spiritual, and sexual health and wellness. The importance of sexual wellnessshould not be taken for granted because it empowers individuals to be confident in their sexuality and also to be responsible.

Everyone engages differently when it comes to intimacy, this stems from our upbringing, religion, culture, and so many other things that contribute to our perspective and behaviour when it comes to everything about sexuality.

In simple terms, sexual health includes all facets of sex such as sexual attitudes, sexual behaviour, and sex education.

What does this mean in the real world? When you’re confident in your sexuality, you can express what you enjoy, stand up for yourself during uncomfortable situations and, at the same time, listen to your partner when they express themselves or their concerns as well. Intimacy is a powerful experience that should be enjoyed by both partners equally.
