Counselling with appropriate content for patients can be reduce their sexual problems and improve their quality of life. Therefore, this study was performed to find a comprehensive conclusion about the effect of sexual counselling based on PLISSIT model on sexual dysfunction. To this aim, we searched the Web of Knowledge, PubMed, Cochran, Scopus, google scholar and Persian databases (SID, Magiran, Irandoc and Iranmedex) by the MeSH and non-MeSH terms in title, abstract, or keywords until August 2021. The search strategy was (“Sex Counselling” OR “Counselling, Sex”) AND PLISSIT OR EX-PLISSIT AND (“Sexual Dysfunction” OR “Sexual Disorder” OR “Sex Disorder”) with no limitation in time. All available controlled trials, conducted on individuals with sexual dysfunction, who received counselling based on PLISSIT or EX-PLISSIT Model, were included. The quality of included trials was assessed using the Oxford Center for Evidence Based Medicine checklist. Statistical analyses were done by Comprehensive Meta-analysis Version2. Out of 204 relevant publication trials, 23 trials (2001 female, 19 male) were included in this study. Nine studies had sufficient data for meta-analysis. The meta-analysis showed a significant improve in sexual function (SMD: 1.535; 95% CI: 1.175 to 1.896; P≤0.001) following Counselling Based on PLISSIT Model. Although all studies have shown the positive effect of counselling based on PLISSIT model on sexual function, we recommend conducting more studies in different countries with different sexual cultures in order to clarify the issue as much as possible. %> http://jrhms.thums.ac.ir/article-1-38-en.pdf %P 16-29 %& 16 %! %9 Applicable %L A-10-69-1 %+ Health Sciences Research Center, Torbat Heydariyeh University of Medical Sciences, Torbat Heydariyeh, Iran %G eng %@ %[ 2022
