The data of the research will be collected through the "Data Collection Form, Female Sexual Function Scale (FSFI)" and The Body Exposure During Sexual Activities Questionnaire (BESAQ), which are created by the researchers by scanning the literature. Research Volunteers who apply to SBU Haseki Training and Research Hospital Pregnancy Outpatient Clinic and meet the sample selection criteria will constitute the sample of the study. In order to determine the minimum sample size required for this study, the power analysis 80% power and α = 0.50 were calculated to include a total of 138 women with a minimum 69 sample size in each group. The intervention and control ratio is 1. However, considering the probability of loss, 150 pregnant women will be randomized. The data will be interviewed online with pregnant women and online yoga training will be held for the intervention group, and the data will be uploaded to the ISM SPSS 22.0 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) statistics program; Parametric (Anova and T test) and nonparametric (Mann-Whitney U Test, Kruskal Wallis, Chi Square) statistical methods will be used.
