Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This pilot randomized controlled trial will be carried out with women with physical disabilities registered at a disability center. A total of 49 participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. Following a three-week follow-up period, the study will be completed, with a total of 26 participants: 16 in the intervention group and 10 in the control group . SRH training will be provided to the intervention group once a week, for a total of three sessions. At the beginning and end of the study, both groups will be administered a survey including demographic information, the Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire-Female (SQLQ-F), and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI).
