The need for psychosexual counselling in family planning practice. 1976

J S Black

In this review article, the case in favour of the need for psychosexual counselling in family planning practice will be presented. Since psychosexual counselling is a multidisciplinary subject, family planning clinics and practices are ideally suited to the task. In presenting the case, liberal illustrative examples are provided in order to depict what the current and suggested extended facilities and techniques involve. The article is also intended to act as a comprehensive guide for students, nurses, medical practitioners and specialists alike, to bring them up to date in new concepts in history taking, physical examination and the sexually explicit aspects of family planning. Traditionally taught concepts may well be out of date in a modern society.
