Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health (FSRH)

The Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare (FSRH) is a professional membership body based in the United Kingdom, dedicated to the advancement and improvement of sexual and reproductive health care. Founded in 1993, the FSRH aims to support healthcare professionals in providing high-quality care in this vital area of public health.

FSRH's primary role includes the development of clinical guidelines, training, and professional development programmes for healthcare providers, including doctors and nurses. By establishing evidence-based approaches to sexual and reproductive health, the FSRH ensures that practitioners can deliver effective, safe, and appropriate care to individuals seeking services in contraception, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and reproductive health.

The Faculty offers a range of resources, including the FSRH Clinical Guidelines, educational courses, and access to journals and publications that focus on sexual and reproductive health issues. It promotes continual learning and improvement among its members, encouraging them to stay informed about new research findings and clinical practices.

Additionally, the FSRH advocates for better sexual and reproductive health policies at both local and national levels. This involves engaging with healthcare policymakers, public health bodies, and various stakeholders to improve access to sexual health services and ensure that the needs of diverse populations are met.

Membership of the FSRH provides healthcare professionals with the opportunity to join a community of like-minded practitioners who are committed to advancing sexual and reproductive health. Through its initiatives, the FSRH seeks to enhance public understanding of these health issues and ensure that informed choices are accessible to everyone, contributing to the overall well-being of individuals and communities.
