Despite increased risk for chronic disease there is limited research that has examined differences in multimorbidity between cisgender sexual minority and heterosexual adults. Data from the 2014–2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System were analyzed. We used sex-stratified multinomial logistic regression to examine: 1) sexual identity differences in multimorbidity between sexual minority and heterosexual adults and 2) whether differences varied by age group. The sample included 687,151 adults (ages 18–80+). Gay, lesbian, and bisexual adults had higher odds of multimorbidity than heterosexual adults. Differences were greater among bisexual adults under the age of 50 and lesbian women under the age of 60. Men over the age of 50 who identified their sexual identity as “other” and lesbian women over the age of 80 reported lower multimorbidity compared to their heterosexual counterparts of the same sex. Health promotion interventions to reduce multimorbidity among sexual minorities across the lifespan are needed.
