The main objective of this study was to determine the relationship between unwanted pregnancy and sexual satisfaction during pregnancy.

Data analysis was performed by the program SPSS 18 and statistical differences were considered significant at P-values<0.05.
Results: The frequency of unsatisfaction (OR = 5.08; 95 % CI = 0.24–107.02; P = 0.497), low satisfaction (OR = 30.62; 95 % CI = 7.20–130.2; P <0.001), and moderate satisfaction (OR = 1.45; 95 % CI = 0.87–2.41; P =0.155), were higher in case group compared to controls, while frequency of the high satisfaction (OR = 0.11; 95 % CI = 0.06–0.22; P <0.001) was significantly higher in control groups. The total mean ISS scores for the women with wanted and unwanted pregnancies were 101.1 ±11.1 and 80.6 ±14.6, respectively (z= - 3.99, P < 0.001).
