Evaluation of the quality of informed consent in patients referring to infertility centers of Rasht in 2019

Introduction: Marital satisfaction is a multidimensional concept including various aspects. Sexual satisfaction is not only a factor affecting marital satisfaction but also a common cause of sexual dysfunction, disagreements, and communicational problems of couples. There is a relationship between these two interconnected variables and other variables, such as spirituality that is the most substantial one. This study was conducted to examine the relationship between sexual health and marital satisfaction with spiritual health. Materials and Methods: Statistical population of this descriptive-correlational study included women who seek mental health services provided in the psychology and psychiatry clinic of the Faculty of Behavioral and Health Sciences. Of these women, 183 subjects were chosen using a convenient sampling method. The data obtained from Spiritual Health Questionnaire, Sexual Health Questionnaire, and Enrich Couple Scale (ECS) were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation coefficient through SPSS19 software. Results: There was a positive and significant correlation between spiritual health and marital satisfaction (P-value=0.001, r=0.31) while there was not any significant association between spiritual health and sexual health. Conclusion: Mental health issues can affect the relationships between many variables, including spiritual health, marital satisfaction, and sexual health. As an ambiguous relationship, the correlation between spiritual health and sexual health should be addressed. Keywords: Mental Health, Sexual Health, Marital Satisfaction, Mental Health
