Nurses’ attitude was the average score of 26.6 out of 51. Practice was 2.63 out of 21. Formal education about sexual health care (t=2.01, P=0.048) had significant influenced on nurses’ attitude and age (F=4.45, P=0.013) and working site (F=3.28, P=0.013) on nurses’ practice. The relationship between nurses´attitude and practice toward cancer patients´ sexual health nursing was statistically significant (r=0.33, P=0.001).Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate that it is imminent for nurses to acquire various information about sexual problems with patients during cancer treatment.
