Comparative evaluation of AI language models in educating patients on women's sexual health.

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in patient education, especially with the rise in popularity of large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and DeepSeek, offering quick, accessible answers to health-related queries. Yet, in female sexual health, a field historically under-researched and stigmatized, AI's role in patient-facing education has yet to be thoroughly explored. Objectives: To evaluate the accuracy and relevance of responses from ChatGPT, Copilot, and DeepSeek to common female sexual health questions, comparing them to the Prosayla website and to each other. Design and methods: Twelve questions were developed based on content from the Prosayla website, covering topics ranging from menopause to sexual dysfunction. Responses were collected from the three LLMs and Prosayla. Two female sexual medicine experts independently rated each response for accuracy and relevance utilizing a six-point Likert scale (0-5) with a double-blind design being used to minimize bias. One-way ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc analyses were used to assess statistical significance ( Results: No significant differences in accuracy scores were observed across the four sources for Physician A ( Conclusion: AI models demonstrated comparable accuracy to Prosayla (a trusted patient education source), with the models being more relevant for one of the raters. These findings suggest that AI tools may complement traditional educational materials and support patient learning. However, expert oversight remains essential to ensure content quality and appropriateness. Future efforts should develop structured strategies and implementation frameworks to responsibly integrate AI into patient education, particularly in sensitive areas like women's sexual health.
