Learning about inquiry responses and the prevalence of sexual problems among specific groups of women, including minority women, can help identify appropriate inquiry and management pathways.

Aim: To better understand useful inquiry techniques as well as to describe the prevalence of sexual problems among a specific group of minority women aged 40-80 years.
