Reproductive health problems, particularly infertility, affect 48 million couples globally, ranking as the fifth most serious global obstacle for women. Infertility can lead to significant psychosocial effects, including stress, anxiety, and depression, with women experiencing these impacts more severely than men. In vitro fertilization (IVF) offers a solution but comes with emotional, physical, and psychosocial challenges, particularly for women, who often experience fatigue, headaches, weight gain, and stress. Effective support mechanisms, such as information and education, are crucial in improving the IVF experience. Video-assisted educational programs have shown promise in enhancing knowledge and reducing stress during IVF treatment. However, there is a lack of studies evaluating their impact on the quality of life and psychosocial status of women undergoing IVF. This study aims to examine the effect of video-supported training on drug use, quality of life, and psychosocial status of women during IVF treatment, hypothesizing that it will improve quality of life, increase emotional capacity, and reduce anxiety.
