Genitourinary medicine services are expected to modernize in order to meet the needs of the NHS in the 21st century. Although increased funding is essential, there is a need for services to look at new ways of delivering care in order to deal with the increasing rate of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including HIV in the community. This must include a review of skill-mix and roles. Some changes may appear to lower the quality of service. There must be auditing of changes to ensure that standards are not lowered. A short-lived working group was put together at the request of the RCP joint speciality committee for GUM consisting of representatives from diverse GUM clinics which have all been involved in extensive modernization of their service in order to meet demand. This report does not hold all the answers but provides suggestions for clinics wishing to initiate change. Changes must be appropriate to the local population and access pressures. More extreme measures may only be appropriate in the most severely stretched clinics and with consideration of measuring outcomes.

Summary: The association of musculoskeletal disorders and genitourinary symptoms is reviewed. Reactive arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis can present with a variety of genitourinary symptoms. Similarly sexually transmitted diseases including gonorrhoea, syphilis, HIV and other viral infections can affect the musculoskeletal system. Reiter's syndrome may be a consequence of a sexually transmitted infection although its presentation can suggest that also in postdysenteric cases. The fact that conditions may present to various medical specialties requires doctors outside departments of GUM to allow their patients an opportunity and the time to discuss sexual matters.
