ResumoThe person with an ostomy faces many adjustments that affect sexuality. He or she must adjust to changes in body image and in sexual self-image, all while learning new techniques of self-care. The PLISSIT (Permission, Limited Information, Specific Suggestion, and Intensive Therapy) theory of Annon is useful when providing sexual health care education. Communication, education, and experimentation are the key elements to sexual rehabilitation for the person with an ostomy. Multiple holistic therapeutic suggestions are proposed for client education.
