The goal of this evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle exercises on sexual function in women of reproductive age. A randomized controlled trial was conducted in a sample of women of reproductive age, 77 women were randomly assigned to control (n=39) and training (n=38) groups. A form including questions regarding socio-demographic characteristics and the Female Sexual Function Index was applied to all women included in the study. Pelvic floor exercise training was given to the women in the training group and the Female Sexual Function Index was applied to both groups in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd months. The differences between those who received and those who did not receive training and the effects of regular pelvic exercise on sexual function were evaluated by month. Research Hypotheses H1: Sexual function scores of women of reproductive age who regularly perform pelvic floor muscle exercises are higher than those who do not exercise. H2: Sexual function scores are higher for those who regularly exercise their pelvic floor muscles for at least two months
