The process of setting up Sexual Hygiene as part of the institutionalization of Public Health, takes its first impulse and momentum in Spain during the Liberal Triennium, when first Chairs of Public and Private Hygiene are established, the first Manual on Hygiene are published and Societies and Academies of Hygiene are founded. Parliament adopting the first health Act in 1855. Spanish medical doctors and specialists in hygiene elaborate a discourse on sexuality permeated with the building blocs of bourgeois ideology and products from the unexhaustable quarry of catholic morality. The study extends to the turn of the twentieth century when the subject of sexuality is monopolized by legal médecine and psychiatry.
