Conclusion
sexual dysfunction
The results of the present study revealed that CBT and sexual health education are effective in improving newly married women’s sexual assertiveness and satisfaction. Considering that sexual health education compared to CBT does not require complex counseling skills and can be easily provided by women’s health care providers in health centers during a few sessions, it can be used as a preferred approach in promoting sexual assertiveness and satisfaction of newly married women with low sexual expression power.Any procedure which rises awareness about one’s sexual life contains the potential to promote changes in sexual behaviour and it’s outcomes. Thus, further studies need to evaluate the effectiveness of different interventions on sexual satisfaction in women with sexual dysfunction.
