The effects of lifestyle improvements and mindfulness-based stress reduction on pregnancy rate and anxiety in infertile women undergoing IVF: A randomized clinical trial
Overview
This randomized clinical trial examines the impact of an eight-week mindfulness-based stress reduction program combined with health-promoting lifestyle education on infertile women undergoing IVF. The study compares clinical pregnancy rates, anxiety levels, and lifestyle scores between an intervention group receiving face-to-face sessions and social media support, and a control group receiving standard care. Results indicate that the intervention group experienced significantly higher pregnancy rates, improved lifestyle scores, and reduced anxiety compared to the control group.
