In 2019 the slogan is “ESSM family goes Slovenia” to celebrate its annual congress and to update you on the latest and most fascinating findings and achievements in Sexual Medicine. The leading experts in Sexual Medicine will share with you how recent research findings may translate into clinical applications and how clinical findings will finally support and enrich your daily medical practice for the benefit of the million sufferers from any kind of sexual problems.

With the long-standing tradition of ESSM our priority of the annual congress is the educational program aiming at training of young colleagues and to intensify the knowledge of advanced colleagues in special topics of interest. But also to build the bridges between the generations. This is what ESSM extremely stands for: the mixture of pioneers and leaders as well as new upstarts in the field of Sexual Medicine is the secret recipe of the permanently successful story of the ESSM congresses. The content of the  congress will cover topics regarding both sexes and all sexual orientations. State-of-the-art educational opportunities and the newest innovative research will be highlighted. To achieve this, the faculty will include renowned experts and up-coming stars in our field. 

Besides an attractive scientific congress program, this is the first time that ESSM congress will take place in an East European country. This is an excellent opportunity to support the development of sound sexual medicine knowledge and awareness in Slovenia. Society for Sexual Medicine of Slovenia (SSMS) was founded in 2006 and aim to encourage the highest standards in clinical practice, education and research among the health professionals as well as promoting different issues concerning the sexual health among the general population.
