title: [Data about the sexual activity of Hungarian men].
abstract: In the last decades there was a considerable development in the field of sexual medicine, which is a relatively new discipline integrating studies on the physiology, biology, psycho-social and cultural aspects of sexuality of both genders including morbidities affecting sexual health and well being. Issues regarding sexuality are often neglected during routine medical consultations. There is lack of comparable data about the average sexual activity of men; many of them collected from commercial sources.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  This study aimed to collect reliable data about the sexual activity of Hungarian men.
  
  
  METHODS
  Patients attending the andrology and urology outpatient department were asked during consultation about their intercourse frequency.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Data of 723 men (age between 21-61 years) were evaluated. Mean of weekly intercourses was 3.1, with small difference between age decades. Only men over 50 years reported significantly less frequency (1.9/week). Other possible influencing factors were not analyzed.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Comparing with available international data, Hungarian men seem to be among the most active male population worldwide.
