They were randomly assigned into intervention) sexual counseling with routine infertility counseling) and control groups )routine infertility counseling(. Eight counseling sessions via social networks were held for both groups. The Snell’s sexual self-concept questionnaire was completed by participants before and after the intervention.

We also found an increasing trend of the scores in positive sexual self-concept domain (110.6±18.42, 120.1±18.7, 120.4±17.9) (P<0.001) and a decrease in negative sexual self-concept domain (24.3±7.87, 20.2±7.77, 19.65±6.97) (P<0.001) in intervention group. In the situational self-concept, there were no difference between the two groups during the time (P=0.06) Conclusion: The results obtained in the present study showed that counseling through social networks was effective in improving the sexual self-concept in infertile women, thus ameliorating the couples’ sexual relations.
