Introduction: There is a relationship between chronic pain and the quality of sexual life and, as a result, sexual dissatisfaction. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim of determining the predictors of sexual satisfaction.
Methods: This is a descriptive-cross-sectional study that was conducted in 2022 on 204 women suffering from cyclic mastalgia referring to four comprehensive health centers and clinics of Kausar Hospital in Qazvin city. The study tools included theVisual analog scale and the Cardiff Clinic breast pain chart to diagnose cyclic mastalgia and Larson's sexual satisfaction evaluation questionnaire. Data were analyzed with SPSS version 23 software.
Results: The average age of the sample and their husbands was 33.05 ± 6.145 and 36.21 ± 5.973 years, respectively. Variables of social support, husband's interest in breast touching, woman's interest in wife, sexual behavior, were predictors of sexual satisfaction in sample people (p<0.05)). The findings showed that for each unit increase in the variables of husband's interest in touching the breast, woman's interest in her husband, social support and sexual behavior, the amount of sexual satisfaction increases by 0.23, 0.31, 0.09, and 0.25 respectively.
Conclusion: Social support, woman's interest in husband, husband's interest in breast touching, sexual behavior are predictors of sexual satisfaction in patients with cyclic mastalgia. Therefore, it is suggested to carry out interventions keeping in mind the mentioned cases in order to improve sexual satisfaction and subsequently increase the quality of sexual life of these women.
