Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Experimental Group
Participants will complete a demographic and treatment-related questionnaire. Prior to starting ovulation induction, they will complete the SCREENIVF, STAI, and FertiQol scales. On the first day of ovulation induction, participants will receive face-to-face and video-assisted education on prescribed medications, covering purpose, dose, administration, injection technique, timing, effects, and side effects. After follicle tracking confirms readiness for egg retrieval, participants will receive individual education on the ovulation-triggering medication, followed by QR code-linked educational videos specific to this medication. Post-oocyte aspiration, once sedation effects wear off, participants will complete the SCREENIVF, STAI, and FertiQol scales, along with an Education Satisfaction Evaluation Form.

Control Group
Participants will complete a demographic and treatment-related questionnaire. Before starting ovulation induction, they will complete the SCREENIVF, STAI, and FertiQol scales. On the first day of ovulation induction, participants will receive face-to-face education on medication use, covering purpose, dose, administration, injection technique, timing, effects, and side effects. After ovulation induction, follicle tracking will occur. Upon readiness for egg retrieval, participants will receive individual education on the medication to trigger ovulation. After oocyte aspiration and recovery from sedation, participants will complete the SCREENIVF, STAI, and FertiQol scales, plus an Education Satisfaction Evaluation Form. Control group participants seeking continued treatment after a failed cycle will receive post-study access to video-assisted medication education via QR codes.
