Yle seeks personal experiences on health and sexuality from individuals in Finland

Health issues, including various illnesses, can impact an individual’s sexuality and sexual desires in multiple ways. Yle previously reported on sexless relationships, where many respondents attributed their lack of sexual activity or fading desires to health-related reasons.

Yle is currently exploring whether healthcare practitioners adequately address sexuality and related issues during treatment. They are seeking experiences from individuals on how health problems or illnesses have affected their sexuality or ability to engage in sexual activities. Additionally, they want to know if help has been received from healthcare services regarding these concerns.

If you have encountered health issues that influenced your sexuality, or if you sought assistance from health professionals, you are encouraged to share your experience through the provided form.

The gathering of personal accounts aims to contribute to a broader story, which may also lead to potential interviews. Answers submitted will be used solely for this article, and Yle assures that personal information will not be shared with external parties.

Participants are asked how their illnesses or health issues have impacted their sexuality and whether they have discussed these matters or sought help from healthcare providers. Questions include whether healthcare professionals brought up sexuality-related topics during treatment, and whether consent is granted for using this information in the story.

To share your experience, please provide your age, location, and contact details (name, phone number/email) for follow-up communication.
