The aim of this study was to determine the predictors of sexual self-efficacy in Women with Multiple sclerosis. Methods: This descriptive analytical study was conducted in Tehran, Iran, with participation of 200 Women with MS, who referred to the Iranian MS society, had Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) ≥ 7, and met the inclusion criteria in year 2019; they were selected using convenience sampling method. For data collection and assess the predictor factors of sexual self-efficacy in Women with MS, related standard questionnaires were used. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and multiple linear regression model via SPSS software. Findings: The mean age of participants was 36. 33 ± 5. 22 years, and the mean score of sexual self-efficacy was 16. 54 ± 7. 27. After entering the significant variables derived from measuring the relationship between each variable individually with the score of sexual self-efficacy in multiple linear regression model for controlling confounders, Sexual dysfunction (P = 0. 001), anxiety (P = 0. 024), stress (P = 0. 006), and the number of sexual intercourse (P = 0. 013) were significantly predictor factors of sexual self-efficacy in Women with MS. Conclusion: The Sexual dysfunction, anxiety, stress, and the number of sexual intercourse significantly predicted sexual self-efficacy in Women with MS.
