Abstract:   (249 Views)
Objective: Investigating the effect of Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) provided via social media on sexual performance and sexual distress of women with diabetes.
Method: This randomized controlled trial was conducted from October 2022 to October 2023. Participants were reproductive age married women diagnosed with diabetes, suffering from sexual dysfunction. Eligible individuals were randomly allocated to intervention (36 people) and control (36 people) groups using the random balanced block method. Sexual function, sexual distress and mindfulness were assessed before the intervention, immediately, 1 and 3 months after the intervention. The data was analyzed using the analysis of variance-covariance for repeated measurements using spss-24 software at a significance level of 0.05.
Findings: The scores of sexual performance and mindfulness in the intervention group were significantly higher than the control group in the post-intervention measurements. Therefore, this intervention was able to effectively increase the sexual performance and mindfulness of women with diabetes. Sexual distress scores in the intervention group were significantly lower than the control group in the post-intervention measurements. Therefore, this intervention was able to effectively reduce the sexual distress of women with diabetes.
Conclusion: MBCT provided via social media can increase mindfulness and sexual function and decrease the sexual distress of women with diabetes.
