Purpose:

To clarify the impact factors affecting anxiety and coping behavior in infertile women undergoing infertility treatment.

Methods:

This cross-sectional study used an anonymous, self-administrated questionnaire with a total of 123 questions. The questionnaire was distributed to 750 infertile women undergoing infertility treatment and it was collected from them by mail or placement method. The contents of the questionnaire included a personal background; previously developed scales of “Suffering during infertility treatment”, “Partnership scale for couples undergoing infertility treatment”, “Self-affirmation”; and a short version of “Egalitarian sex role attitudes”. The collected data were analyzed using significance tests, calculation of correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis.

Results:

Of the 750 infertile women contacted, 214 valid respondents were used for this study. The results showed that the longer the period women received treatment, the higher the scores of: “sense of vulnerability due to infertility”; “uncertainty toward pregnancy”; “partnership of couple undergoing infertility treatment” as “anxiety”; and “finding a new value from the infertility experience” as “coping behavior with anxiety”. The results also showed that the higher the frequency of embryo transplantation infertile women received, the higher the score on “introversive/emotional coping behavior” as “coping behavior with anxiety” resulted.

Conclusion:

The length of general infertility treatment administered, and the frequency of embryo transplantation are impact factors that cause anxiety and affect coping behavior in infertile women under infertility treatment. Therefore, the general infertility treatment length and embryo transplantation frequency should be considered to support to decrease anxiety and encourage coping behavior in infertile women under infertility treatment.
