What this trial is about

This experimental, randomized controlled, single-blind study includes intervention and control groups. Pregnant women between 16 and 20 weeks of gestation who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate will be included in the study. Pregnant women will be randomly assigned to groups. Pre-test data will be collected from both groups. The intervention group will receive sexual counseling training in two sessions, face-to-face and in groups, until week 22. Second test data will be collected after week 37 (before delivery), and final test data will be collected three months after delivery. This study is expected to have a significant impact on women's lives, as this topic is considered taboo in our country, leading to a lack of open discussion and the prevalence of misconceptions and false beliefs (sexual myths).
