dc.description.abstractIntroduction: "Chemsex" is related to the use of certain drugs to facilitate sustained arousal and induce a feeling of instant rapport with sexual partners. Aim: To describe the consumption profile of users of substances during sexual intercourse (SSI) and its relationship with demographic, lifestyle, and health variables. "Methods: Descriptive and cross-sectional study conducted through a self-administered and anonymous survey under the Google Forms platform® which was broadcasted on different social networks. Main outcome measures: Description of demographic and lifestyle aspects of the respondents and in the subgroup of SSI and chemsex users. Results: 2924 surveys were received; 421 people (16.9%) reported having consumed at least once one or more of the following: mephedrone, crystal meth, GHB/GBL, cocaine, LSD, poppers, ketamine, and ecstasy. Chemsex was defined as the consumption of the first three, and its prevalence was 1.1%. An SSI and chemsex user profile in our study was a man between 26 and 35 years, MSM, and inhabitant of the city of Buenos Aires. SSI and chemsex users were more likely to have an STI in the last year and to have an HIV diagnosis. Conclusions: This is the first survey that deals with this issue in our country and in Latin America. Considering the tendency to use condoms less and to present more diagnoses of STIs and HIV in the population of SSI users, we consider it necessary to study this subject in our country as the rising reports in world literature show a boost in substance use.
