The method of assigning medication and placebo to patients is randomized and randomized blocks with block size 4(using a random permutation table). A randomized list provide by a statistician. In this study, medication and placebo will be placed in the closed envelopes according to the randomized list and different codes by the person outside the study then assigned to any patient that enter the study. Medication and placebo are identical in appearance, packaging, color. The nature of the medication and placebo are apparenc after the analysis of the results, Blinding description: In this study, Researcher and Participating will be unware of oxytocin gel  or placebo and the pharmacist will fill the oxytocin gel or placebo tubes.

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: after the preparation of the oxytocin powder, by the trusted pharmacist Ahvaz University of Medical Sciences will be made oxytocin vaginal gel 400 IU and will be given to the intervention group that used for vaginal each night for 8 weeks.They will be asking that they visit on days 14 and 56 after treatment to recheck and follow-up.That will be completed a checklist and FSFI questionnaire and the will be done  clinical and laboratory investigation. Vaginal smear and measure the ph of the vagina will be conducted in just the first and last day of the visit and other assessments will be repeated each time the examination. Intervention 2: Control group: by the trusted pharmacist Ahwaz University of medical sciences will be made placebo vaginal gel 400 units from starch and other inert materials with the appearance is quite similar to the drug and  appropriate conditions and that will be given to the intervention group that used for vaginal each night for 8 weeks.They will be asking that they visit on days 14 and 56 after treatment to recheck and follow-up.That will be completed a checklist and FSFI questionnaire and the will be done  clinical and laboratory investigation.
