Abstract:

In recent years, using birth control methods has increased as a way to decrease population growth. However its effect on sexual relations has attracted the attention of many researchers.

Among all people referring to health centers, 135 married women were randomly selected and data using a researcher-made questionnaire in a self-report way were gathered. To calculate its validity and reliability, content validity and Cronbach alpha coefficient were respectively used.
