ABSTRACT
Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures to assess sexual function are perhaps those of most significant value as this sphere of activity is one of the most difficult in which to capture information that is meaningful. These instruments, if designed well, may incorporate the functional aspects of sexuality, the symptom severity, and the impact on quality of life. The WHO has defined sexual health as a state of physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being in relation to sexuality (and), not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction, or infirmity [1], and therefore an important reflector of global well-being. However, there are great differences in the perception of clinicians and patients when discussing sexual outcomes.
