Self‐Assessment of Genital Anatomy and Sexual Function within a Belgian, Dutch‐Speaking Female Population: A Validation Study

Replication of the original pilot study results support the validity of the questionnaire. The SAGAS‐F discriminates reasonably well between various genital areas in terms of erotic sensitivity. The clitoris itself appeared to be the most sensitive, consistent with maximum nerve density in this area. Surgery to the clitoris could disrupt neurological pathways and compromise erotic sensation and pleasure. Bronselaer G, Callens N, De Sutter P, De Cuypere G, T'Sjoen G, Cools M, and Hoebeke P.
