The article presents the results of the research about the attitude of nurses of a gynaecology-maternity ward in Celje general hospital to the sexuality of women patients whose uterus was surgically removed. Primary goals of this research are to find outhow much nurses are familiar with the effectof hysterectomy to sexuality of their patients, to whatextend counselling is actually carried out in their work and what in their opinion influences counselling about sexuality afterhysterectomy on the side of the nurse as wellas on the side of the patients. 33 nurses participated in this research. Research data were collected by means of a questionnaire. The results showed that nurses know the effect of hysterectomy on sexuality of their patients, but in spite of the fact that they accept counselling as a part of health care, nurses only occasionally give advice to their patients about sexuality after hysterectomy.
