Course Description

This course will instruct students about pharmacological agents used to prevent and maintain pregnancy, assist with human birth, increase libido and function, and help with gender transformation or transition. We will explore how clinical trials are designed to assess how drugs interact with human sexual function and how we create criteria for safety, efficacy, and risk. Finally, we will cover the underlying mechanisms by which commonly prescribed drugs interfere with human sexual function and desire, and we will explore chemsex, which can have lethal consequences.
