With around 1.8 million (18 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate), Varanasi is number 39 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Mid (1-2M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.1% a year, it would reach about 2.0 million by 2030, so demand for sexologists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Uttar Pradesh's 1.25 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 2,300 hospital beds in Varanasi, including about 110 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 140 hospitals (about 37 public and 100 private). That is about 800 residents for every bed and around 16 beds per hospital on average. Measured against the WHO's often-quoted benchmark of 3 beds per 1,000 people, the city would need roughly 3,200 more beds, which is one reason private clinics and hospitals carry so much of the load.
The same national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people suggests about 2,300 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Varanasi, supported by around 4,100 nurses and midwives. A sexologist is one of many specialities within that total. Specialist head-counts are not published city by city, so these figures show scale, not how many sexologists practise in Varanasi.
On health outcomes, Uttar Pradesh's infant mortality rate is 35 per 1,000 live births (2024), above the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 69.6 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 73% of hospital beds in Uttar Pradesh are private, so most people weigh private sexologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 sexologist for Varanasi, and 14 other cities in Uttar Pradesh have their own sexologist page below.

How to choose a sexologist in Varanasi
- Check the qualification: "Sexologist" is not a separate NMC specialty. Look for an MBBS doctor with MD (Psychiatry or Dermatology-Venereology) or an MS/MCh in Urology, with sexual-medicine training.
- Verify registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register; ask for the registration number and check it and note the registration number.
- Ask what the consultation includes and whether tests, follow-ups and procedures are charged separately.
- Look for clear, itemised communication about costs; avoid anyone who guarantees a cure.
- Check practical details: location, clinic hours, appointment system, and whether emergency back-up exists if something goes wrong.
Be careful of advertisements promising guaranteed cures or instant results. Such claims are restricted under the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954 and NMC rules. A qualified doctor will explain options honestly.

Frequently asked questions: Sexologists in Varanasi
Who is the best sexologist in Varanasi?
There is no single best doctor for everyone: the right choice depends on your condition, budget and location. A good approach is to shortlist two or three sexologists, check their qualification and registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register; ask for the registration number and check it, and compare facilities and communication. On this page, Arogyam Clinic (Dudhmandi Road, near Raymond Showroom, Orderly Bazar, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh 221002) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a sexologist in Varanasi?
Call the clinic or hospital number shown on the listing, use WhatsApp where it is shown, or visit during outpatient hours. Ask about the consultation fee, whether an appointment is needed, and which documents or earlier reports to bring.
How much does a sexologist consultation cost in Varanasi?
Fees depend on the doctor's experience, the type of facility and the tests or procedures involved, and we do not publish unverified prices. Ask the clinic for the consultation fee and any follow-up charges when you call; government hospitals generally charge much less than private clinics.
Which hospitals in Varanasi offer sexologist services?
Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Varanasi include BHU Institute of Medical Sciences, and the city also has many other hospitals and clinics. Each has its own outpatient timings and departments, so check availability for sexologist services directly before you go. This is general information, not a complete directory.
How do I avoid fake or misleading sexologists?
Check that the doctor holds a recognised MBBS-based qualification and an NMC or state registration number. Be wary of anyone promising a guaranteed cure, selling their own branded medicines aggressively or advertising instant results.
Can diabetes or blood pressure affect sexual health?
Yes. Diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, some medicines, stress and low hormone levels can all affect sexual function. A doctor will usually check these along with the sexual history.
Should my partner come along?
It is entirely your choice. For some concerns, such as desire or intimacy problems, joint sessions help. For others you may prefer to attend alone first.
How many hospital beds does Varanasi have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 2,300 beds (around 110 ICU beds) for Varanasi. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
