Abstract

Infertility and its treatment can cause many problems on the infertile couples, especially women as birth attendants. Infertility can also affect the infertile people self-efficacy and self-esteem. These two factors can affect the involved reproductive treatment. This study tries to determine the level of self-esteem and self-efficacy in infertile women who undergone vitro insemination, and its outcomes. Materials & Methods: The study was carried out in Urmia University of Medical Sciences' affiliated infertility centers, in 2014. The study population was 210 iinfertile women who applied for IVF in UMSU infertility centers. Appropriate questionnaires of self-esteem and self-efficacy were used. The data were analyzed with SPSS software (version 20). Results: Results showed that the mean scores of self-efficacy and self-esteem in infertile women were 22.25±7. 52, and 45.10±22.64, respectively. The level of education of the spouses with the mean score of self-efficacy and self-esteem, were positively significant. There were significant and positive association between self esteem and self efficacy (r=0.84, P ˂0.001). The mean of self esteem and self efficacy in employed women were more than that of house wife women (22.25±7.52, 63.03±18.36 VS 13.8±8.54, 21.91±41.12). Negative association were found between self esteem and self efficacy with duration of infertility (r=0.73, r=0.64, P ˂0.001). Data analysis also showed that in women who had higher mean of self-esteem and self efficacy (20.7±6.51, 59.18±18.9), the outcome of IVF treatment were positive (Pvalue˂0.001). Conclusion: The impact of self-efficacy and self-esteem on infertile women is clear. Improving these two qualities along with reproductive techniques can be highly useful in achieving successful pregnancy in infertile women
