Abstract
Objectives: This study was planned to investigate the relationship between the genital self-image of primiparae and their sexual quality of life in the postpartum period in heterosexual couples. Method: In this cross-sectional and correlational study, the data were collected through face-to-face interviews in the eastern part of Turkey. Results: The results demonstrated that the relationship between the genital self-image and sexual quality of life of the participants who were sexually active after birth was moderate (r = 0.52, p <.001). Both the genital self-image and sexual quality of life of the participating women were affected by the romantic relationship between them and their partners after birth (p <.01). Conclusions: Healthcare professionals should encourage and support couples to look over their relationship and problems they experience in their romantic relationship after birth.
