title: Sexual health.
abstract: Between January 2006 and December 2008, sexual health problems were managed 2264 times in the BEACH (Bettering the Evaluation and Care of Health) program at a rate of 781.5 contacts per 100,000 encounters, which extrapolates to about 830,000 times annually across Australia. We examine the management rate of individual sexual health problems to look for disparities between the genders.
