People with intellectual disabilities need care and education in the field of sexual health and fertility control. The intention of the research was to learn about the knowledge and opinions of medical students about the selected aspects of the sexual health of people with intellectual disabilities. The survey was conducted among 140 students (average age 25.6 ± 5.5 years) of Lublin universities of medical, nursing and midwifery courses. The knowledge and opinions of medical students about manifestations of sexuality of people with intellectual disabilities (or its implementation in partner relationships) are diverse. Most students accept the sexual needs of people with disabilities and the fact that they are capable of marriage and procreation. They also recognize their right to prevent sexual health disorders. What is more, the students recognize the need to improve communication and medical care for people with disabilities. The direction of education differentiates the attitudes concerning only a few issues, e.g. sterilization of disabled people or preparation of disabled women for the period of menopause. A very low level of participation of respondents in academic education concerning problems of sexual health of disabled people or the issue of disability itself was found. In the future, this might become a risk factor for discrimination against disabled people as well as treating them as objects by practicing specialists. Thus there is the need to intensify education in this area early during the studies.
