One of the great things about the web is all the great resources out there. I have rounded up some of what I think are the best ones. Each website has a description so you can see whether it is worthwhile clicking on.Learn about what is needed for healthy sexuality. This pdf contains a checklist so you can learn about what healthy sex is and what it isn’t.

Many of us are scared to ask for help with sexual problems. This site doesn’t hold back. It contains great information about a wide range of sexual health problems. There are photos so that you can see exactly what each disease looks like.

Really warm and friendly site. I learned a lot and I have been working in this area for 12 years! I thought the bit about how smoking affects your sexuality was really interesting. You can also ask Alice a question if it is not covered on the site already.
