Spring 2000 Meeting

This meeting took place on 8/9 March 2000 at the Commonwealth Institute.

For the Millennium the British Society for Sexual Medicine (BSSM) and the Impotence Association joined forces to present an informative two-day conference.  The programme brought together leading specialists in sexual medicine and provided a valuable opportunity to examine the causes and treatment of both male and female sexual dysfunction.  The topics included "male menopause - fact or fiction?", "the role of counselling" and "do all women need sex?"

On the first day (8th March) the scientific programme was aimed specifically at Healthcare professionals.  The second day (9th March) was more relevant to sufferers and their partners as well as healthcare professionals.
