Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are all aware that sexual functioning is an important dimension that can impact the physical and psychological health and quality of life of women. Female sexual functioning can be negatively affected by a variety of factors and life stressors related to medical illness especially when gynaecological disorders are involved. Therefore, CEOG is preparing a special issue on “Sexuality and gynecological diseases” that will include a collection of manuscripts providing new evidence or summarizing the most recent available pieces of evidence in the field of women's care and sexuality. We would like to include different general interest areas such as hormonal treatments, menopause, surgical procedures, structural or hormonal gynecological disorders, treatment of gynecological cancers, etc. that will allow gynecologists, general practitioners and other health-related workers to update on this topic. Hope you can contribute with your valuable work!

Prof. Camil Castelo-Branco and Dr. Maria-Angeles Martínez-Zamora
