Sexual dissatisfaction (79.2%) and decreased sexual contact (76.4%) were the most frequent in both genders. “Lack of erection” and premature ejaculation were observed in men, each one (92.2%), and anorgasmia (90.5%) in women. In this study, there was not a significant difference between SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION and age, gender, drug group, and duration of dialysis (p>0.05), while, a significant difference was obtained between SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION and education level and cause of dialysis (p<0.05).Conclusion: The majority of hemodialysis patients suffer from SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION, which this problem can seriously affects the patients’ quality of life. Thus, SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION should be considered as a major health related concern in these patients. Hence, paying attention to sex function in these patients is of importance.
