Abstract

Remaining in aghd period during the past years has become more common among young couples, but less attention has been paid to couples' problems during this period. This article explores the sexuality of young couples during aghd period in couples referred to the marriage counseling center in Kerman in 2017. Materials & Methods: This two-stage cross-sectional study was performed on 712 couples referred to the Kerman Marriage Counseling Center by easy sampling from July 2017 to Marth 2018. In the first phase, demographic and contact information of couples attending counseling classes were obtained. At least two months after the first phase, the researchers interviewed with brides to get data regarding their sexual life. Data were entered into the SPSS16 software and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: Of the total sample, 31.8% remained in aghd and did not start their independent lives. 87% of the couples experienced sleeping together, while 45% of women insisted on maintaining their virginity during marriage. This group had replaced various types of sexual interactions including oral and anal sex. Conclusion: Inconsistency related to the permissibility of close and long-term marital relations and at the same time the prohibition of the couple's vaginal intercourse exposes them to psychological trauma, interpersonal problems and unwanted pregnancies, and requires more attention.
