Introduction. The survey evaluated an overall sexuality and a general knowledge
concerning sexuality and contraception in female students of two selected universities
in Wrocław.
Material and methods. 250 students of Wrocław Medical University (AM) and
200 students of Wrocław University of Economics (AE) took part in the survey.
The questionnaires were distributed among female students living in dormitories.
Results and conclusions. It was shown that a significant part of examined
women has poor knowledge of sexuality and is often convinced that the myths and
stereotypes concerning sex are true. No statistically significant differences
between the levels of knowledge in both groups were found. It seems that a constant
education and promotion of reliable knowledge of sexuality is necessary also during
studies
