Background and Objective: Hypothyroidism can affect the sexual function of women. This study presents the protocol of a study on the effect of Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) on the sexual function of women with hypothyroidism.
Materials & Methods: This is a study protocol for a randomized clinical trial involving 64 women with hypothyroidism in Iran, who will be randomly divided into two groups of control (n=32) and intervention (n=32). To collect data, a sociodemographic/medical form, the general health questionnaire-28 (GHQ-28), the female sexual function index (FSFI), and the female sexual distress scale-revised (FSDS-R) will be used. The individual SFBT will be provided in five sessions of 45 minutes with a one-week interval. Data analysis will be performed in SPSS software, version 22.
Conclusion: The results of the clinical trial on the effect of SFBT for women with hypothyroidism can be highly beneficial.
