Аннотация
OBJECTIVES: Female infertility causes considerable emotional distress for affected women, negatively influencing their quality of life (QOL) and marital stability. This study aimed to identify factors influencing QOL and marital distress among Omani women attending a fertility clinic.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study included Omani women seeking infertility treatment at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman, from November 2022 to February 2023 and assessed QOL using the World Health Organization QOL-Brief (WHOQOL-BREF) and marital adjustment using the Arabic Revised-Dyadic Adjustment Scale.
RESULTS: A total of 150 women were included in this study. The mean WHOQOL-BREF Version score was 69.40 ± 11.03, with mental health scoring the lowest and social relationships the highest. Primary infertility was reported by 58% and most participants were over 35 years old and unemployed. Mental health QOL was positively associated with polygynous marriages and younger age. The marital adjustment was negatively correlated with younger age at marriage and disparities in spousal education levels.
CONCLUSION: These findings highlight the need for targeted psychological support to improve the QOL and marital dynamics of Omani women undergoing infertility treatment.
