study was a qualitative study with conventional content analysis approach. Purposive sampling was carried out by
selecting 6 spouses of women with breast cancer. Data were collected through semi-structured interview. The recorded
interviews were transcribed verbatim. Content analysis was used to reduce and name the data, obtain analytical codes,
and finally recognize the theme. Results: Data analysis resulted in the extraction of 4 categories of couples’ mental
challenges, multifaceted romantic meditation, multifaceted traumas caused by the disease, dual energies (inductions)
of relatives, and 12 subcategories. Conclusion: In spite of suffering from all the challenges and traumas, husbands
of women with breast cancer have not left their wives alone and have done their best to improve their lives; so, we

breast cancer. Knowing and understanding this point by clinical staffs and policy makers can provide pave the way for
