This article addresses the importance of sexual education in society, emphasizing its origin in the family and its development throughout life. The relevance of providing information about sexuality during adolescence and youth is highlighted to prevent risky behaviors and future health problems that can lead to a personal decline in people's lives. The author mentions the reluctance of many parents to discuss sexuality with their children, which can lead to a "pact of silence," prompting young people to seek information among friends, increasing the risk of risky behaviors. Sexual satisfaction is explored from different perspectives, including sexual activity, orgasm, emotional relationships, and psychological well-being. The text includes references to various studies that explore the relationship between sexual satisfaction and variables such as self-esteem, body image, intelligence quotient, and anxiety in university students. It is concluded that sexual satisfaction is a multifactorial issue that influences people's happiness. The proposed research aims to identify levels of sexual satisfaction in university students and contribute to future treatments and interventions to improve this area of their lives.
