Cinsellik, insan yaşamının önemli bir parçasıdır. Psikolojik, fizyolojik, kültürel, etik, sosyolojik, bedensel, nörolojik faktörlerden etkilendiği gibi gelişim dönemlerinden ve yaşanan deneyimlerden de etkilenmektedir. Yenidoğanın dünyaya gelişiyle doğum sonu dönemde ortaya çıkan değişiklikler kadının cinsel sağlığını ve davranışlarını etkilemektedir. Doğum sonu dönemde kadınlarda disparoni, cinsel arzu uyarılma ve cinsel doyumda azalma gibi cinsel sorunlar görülebilir. Bu dönemde ebeler/hemşireler tarafından verilen danışmanlık hizmetleri kadının cinsel sorunlarla baş edebilmesi için önemlidir.
