Objective: The aim of the survey was to determine the diversified ways and influential factors of the process used by women who terminated infertility treatment without having a child to accept the rest of their childless lives, and find their own unique ways to live, in order to identify the nursing support required.

Method: We conducted an interview survey among 14 women who terminated infertility treatment without having a child. The trajectory equifinality model (TEM) was used for analysis.

Results: Childless women had ambivalent feelings that oscillated between freedom and loss immediately after terminating infertility treatment. They then struggled with thoughts about whether giving up a child would be right or wrong, which led to their decision to not have a child. They looked back on the treatment they received, sought a way of life, found a positive meaning in the treatment experience, and then began to think positively about their childless life, regardless of social standards, which made it possible for them to find their unique lifestyle. Influential factors in this process included the recovery of self-confidence, approval from and stable relationships with significant others, existence of peers, and a shify in values.

Conclusion: Results suggest that nurses need to assist childless women in undergoing and terminating fertility treatment such that they, along with their husbands, are satisfied, and to provide information and lifestyle models based on an understanding that their conflicts and attempts to find meaning in the treatment experience can continue even after terminating the treatment.
