Despite the accumulation of studies, however, evidence collected in clinical samples of treatment-seeking people remains scarce. The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics (socio-demographics, sexual habits, and comorbidities) of self-identified \u201csexual addicts.\u201d<\/jats:p>\n        <\/jats:sec>\n        <jats:sec sec-type=\"methods\">\n          <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n          <jats:p>The sample was composed of 72 patients who consulted an outpatient treatment center regarding their sexual behaviors.

Endorsement of sexual addiction diagnosis varied from 56.9% to 95.8% depending on the criteria used. The sexual behaviors reported to have the highest degree of functional impairment were having multiple sexual partners (56%), having unprotected sexual intercourse (51.9%), and using cybersex (43.6%). Ninety percent of patients endorsed a comorbid psychiatric diagnosis, and 60.6% presented at least one paraphilia.<\/jats:p>\n        <\/jats:sec>\n        <jats:sec sec-type=\"conclusions\">\n          <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n          <jats:p>Results showed highly different profiles in terms of sexual preferences and behaviors, as well as comorbidities involved.
