| Abstract | ||||
| Background: For the preservation of fertility and the treatment of future infertility that arises from both medical and social factors, in assisted reproductive technology, elective oocyte cryopreservation is a critical component. Aim: The research aimed to investigate the effect of Nano-educational sessions on awareness, willingness and barriers toward elective oocyte cryopreservation among unmarried females. Design: quasi-experimental design (one group, pre-posttest) was used to attain the aim of the research. Setting: Six out of twelve non-medical faculties at Benha University in Qaliobya governorate, Egypt. Sample: Following established inclusion criteria, a purposive sample of 130 unmarried females employed in the aforementioned research settings was selected. Tools: Data collection was conducted using four primary tools: a structured self-administered questionnaire, a modified Likert scale to assess unmarried females' attitudes, an unmarried females' barriers assessment questionnaire, and an unmarried females' willingness (intention) questionnaire. Results: The program demonstrated a significant increase in the awareness and willingness of unmarried females, as well as a reduction in the barriers associated with elective oocyte cryopreservation. A highly statistically significant difference was observed between the pre- and post-intervention phases. Statistically significant positive correlations were observed between the total knowledge and (total attitude & intention) scores during the pre- and post-intervention phases. Whereas, the total knowledge and total barriers scores demonstrated a statistically significant negative correlation during the pre- and post-intervention phases. Conclusion: Nano-educational sessions enhanced unmarried females' knowledge and positively changed attitude that subsequently improved willingness and reduced barriers regarding elective oocyte cryopreservation. Recommendations: Nano-educational sessions ought to be encouraged in order to empower unmarried females to practice their autonomy in making decision concerning oocyte cryopreservation. | ||||
