%X Diabetes as a chronic disease can have bad impacts on the marital relationships of affected people. Investigating the protective factors&#39; role in the marital satisfaction of these patients is very important. The purpose of this research was to study the sexual satisfaction mediating role in the relationship between self-care and health literacy of men with diabetes and women&#39;s marital satisfaction.

To carry out the research, taking into account the inclusion criteria, the samples were selected by simple random method and completed the questionnaires. To collect data, the Enrich couple scale, sexual satisfaction questionnaire, health literacy for adults, and the summary of diabetes self-care activities were used.

In addition, the findings of the path analysis revealed that the self-care of men with diabetes has a significant and positive effect on women&#39;s marital satisfaction with the mediation of sexual satisfaction. Men&#39;s health literacy has a positive impact on women&#39;s marital satisfaction with the sexual satisfaction mediating role (P < 0.01).
