Our main hypothesis affirms along with sexuality medicalization, a process of sexuality psychologization befell. The term psychologization refers to the extended constitution and implantation of an interpreting gird of human problems in psychological terms, and the increasing presence of knowledge from psychological disciplines (in their relations with psychoanalysis and psychiatry) in this process. Six cases are studied, from the beginnings of the twentieth century to the seventies decade, using articles and books from argentine authors as sources. This article adopts a history of psychology approach in terms of a history of ideas and practices.
