We look back on a very interesting and successful 4th Biennial Meeting of the MESSM.
The Middle East Society for Sexual Medicine (MESSM) is a unique group of specialists from different specialties in the field of Sexual Medicine. Sexual medicine is unique in the way that it affects a couple and not just the patient alone. Therefore, any plan of treatment to be successful should take the partner in consideration. From that perspective, we decided to make the theme for the 4th Biennial Meeting: Sexual health updated: a couple’s perspective. The program targeted updates in sexual medicine and a focus on the effect on the partner was approached wherever possible.
This theme targeted both male and female and will involve new perspectives in diagnosis (new theories, new mechanism of actions, new lab tests, etc.), as well as management (new drugs, new surgery, new devices, new guidelines, etc.). Eminent speakers from ISSM, ESSM as well as from the Middle East participated in the program.
I would like to thank all delegates, collaborating societies and speakers for making this meeting as remarkable as it was. Finally, I would like to thank both companies Spimaco Addwaeih and Novamedtek for their involvement. Without industry support, it would not have been possible to organize this event.
Looking forward to meeting you during one of the future events of the MESSM or during any committee activities that will be initiated in the near future.
