Systemic Lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multisystem autoimmune disease. This disease triggers sexual dysfunction due to physiological, cognitive and mental effects. Since sexual function is often ignored in these patients, this study aimed to investigate the effect of sexual counseling based on EX‑PLISSIT model on improving the sexual function of married women with SLE. This clinical trial was conducted on 101 married women suffering from SLE (18-49 years) residing in Tehran. Randomization was performed by random block allocation with six blocks in a rheumatology clinic. A demographic questionnaire, the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scales-21 Items (DASS-21), and the female sexual function index were used to collect the data. The intervention group received counselling sessions every week while the control group (n = 55) received routine care for the disease. Eight and twelve weeks after completion of counselling sessions, outcomes compared between the intervention and control groups, using independent ttest, paired t-test, repeated measures and Chi-squared test. The scores of sexual function in both groups did not differ significantly before the intervention (p > 0.05). At the first follow-up session, the score of all sexual function domains except sexual pain increased significantly in the intervention group while a significant reduction was observed in all domains of sexual function in the control group (p < 0.05). In the second follow-up, sexual function significantly increased in the intervention group whereas it significantly decreased in the control group (p < 0.05). According to the findings of this study, counseling based on EX-PLISSIT model positively affected the sexual function of women with SLE. Therefore, this model can be used as a cost-effective and simple counseling method to improve the sexual functions.

Sexuality is an integral part of our existence. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) can complicate the lifelong course of sexual development and the ways in which one defines and expresses sexuality. Unfortunately, these issues are not adequately addressed by the health professionals involved in the rehabilitation process. Present research attempts to study the effect that can arise on the sexual and relational satisfaction of couples having a partner with MS after the implementation of a sexual rehabilitation program. 60 couples where one partner has MS and the other does not, were divided into three groups and accepted the PLISSIT (PLISSIT stands for Permission, Limited Information, Specific Suggestions, Intensive Therapy) sexual rehabilitation program as follows: Group a (n = 40, control group) completed self-referencing questionnaires at three times (initial measurement, after 10 weeks and 6 months later), group b (n = 40) did 10 weeks of sexual counselling and completed the same questionnaires at the same times and group c (n = 40) followed the PLISSIT programme and was evaluated in the same way at the same times. The implementation of PLISSIT improved Sexual Dysfunction (SD) levels, increased sexual satisfaction between partners along with general relational satisfaction. PLISSIT can be used by professionals involved in the management of the disease as a comprehensive psychosexual rehabilitation program for MS patients and their partners.
