This study aimed to investigate the effect of sexual counseling based on the EX-PLISSIT model on sexual satisfaction in this group of patients. Materials & Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted on 120 married women with SLE in Ahvaz, Iran. Eligible women were randomly assigned to the intervention group (four weeks of psychosexual counseling sessions based on EX-PLISSIT) and the control group, using block randomization with a 1:1 allocation ratio. Before the intervention and eight and twelve weeks after the completion of counseling sessions, the Larson Sexual Satisfaction Questionnaire was administered. Data was analyzed using independent t-tests, paired t-tests, Chi-square test, and repeated measures ANOVA. Results: There was no significant difference in sexual satisfaction scores between the two groups before the intervention (p=0.718). Following the intervention, the mean sexual satisfaction score in the intervention group significantly increased (from 93.8±15.59 to 104.5±13.32 after 12 weeks), while a significant decrease was observed in the control group. At the 12-week follow-up, the mean satisfaction in the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group (p<0.0001). Repeated Measures ANOVA confirmed a significant difference in the trend of changes between the two groups over time (p<0.0001). Conclusion: The results demonstrated that sexual counseling based on the EX-PLISSIT model significantly enhanced sexual satisfaction in married women with SLE compared to the control group. Therefore, this type of counseling is recommended as an effective and simple adjunctive therapeutic service for enhancing sexual satisfaction in women with SLE. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts randomized controlled trial Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
