A total of 210 Nurses from the General Hospitals in Ilorin, Lafiagi and Offa representing the three senatorial districts in Kwara State participated in the study. The instrument used to collect data was Cause of Sexual Dysfunction among Married Women Questionnaire. The data were analyzed using frequency count, simple percentage and t-test statistics. Three research hypotheses were tested at 0.05 levels of significance. The result of the findings indicated that there was no significant difference in the perception of causes of sexualdysfunction among respondents on the basis of sex, religion and educational qualification. It was recommended that couples who experience any form of sexual discomfort at any stage of their marital relationship should seek professional assistance from medical doctors and marital counselors, since most of the causes identified are either medical or psychological.Key words: Sex, sexual dysfunction, married women, public health institution.
