The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of mindfulness-based sex therapy on marital satisfaction in patients with premature ejaculation. The research method is the semi-experimental and pretest-posttest type with a control group and one-month follow-up. The statistical population of the present study included all men with premature ejaculation and their spouses in Shiraz. The statistical sample was 30 couples who were selected using the convenience sampling method and randomly assigned to the experimental and control group. Then, Six 120-minute sessions of mindfulness-based sex therapy were performed on the experimental group. Both groups answered the marital satisfaction questionnaire three times. The results showed that the mean scores of the marital satisfaction components of the experimental group in the post-test and follow-up phase compared to the control group were significantly increased. Also, Mindfulness-based sex therapy reduced premature ejaculation in men in the experimental group. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested that in order to increase marital satisfaction and reduction of premature ejaculation, mindfulness-based sex therapy should be considered and applied.
