**1. Introduction**

The midwife is recognized worldwide as being the person who is alongside and supporting women giving birth. The midwife also has a key role in promoting health and well-being of childbearing women and their families before conception, antenataly and postnataly, includ‐ ing family planning [1]. The role expands to the field of family planning and promoting sexual health [2]. Since midwives work on the field of perinatal health, but also in the field of gynaecology and reproduction, they face different situations that are closely connected with sexuality.

Despite the fact that our societies become much more open and relaxed regarding the sexual issues, there are still hindrances to discuss the issue freely with someone you are not familiar with [3,4]. So women do need trust in midwives, before they open to reveal the concerns, problems or hesitations on the topic. And midwives should be educated in how to manage delicate situations, concerning sexual problems. Definition of Midwives acknowledge midwives' role in managing sexuality [5] and International Confederation of Midwives request this competency to be met within the undergraduate education [6], but on the other side, midwifery textbooks are very parsimonious on this topic [1,7].

In order to equip the Slovenian midwifery students with knowledge and skills about managing sexuality issues, the subject Sexology in midwifery was introduced into the undergraduate midwifery programme in 2004. It ran continuously every year until today. This chapter presents the results of the evaluation of the subject, by the graduates of midwifery, who attended the course.
