Learning From Online Video Education for Controlled Ovarian Stimulation

Learning From Online Video Education for Controlled Ovarian Stimulation

The Learning from Online Video Education (LOVE) study seeks to determine if online instructional videos on how to administer medication needed for in vitro fertilization (IVF) help improve the quality of life and reduce stress during the IVF process.

The Learning from Online Video Education (LOVE) is a randomized controlled trial that seeks to determine the effect of instructional online videos on medication administration on psychological well being during controlled ovarian stimulation.

The investigators hypothesize that usage of online instructional videos by women undergoing their first cycle of controlled ovarian stimulation for in vitro fertilization or oocyte cryopreservation improves measures of psychological well-being (Infertility Self Efficacy Scale, FertiQoL-T and Perceived stress scores) when compared to subjects that do not have access to this educational resource.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Undergoing first controlled ovarian stimulation cycle at the time of enrollment
• Has internet access

Exclusion Criteria:

• Had prior controlled ovarian stimulation cycle
• Does not have internet access
• Declines in person IVF medication teaching session
• Treating physician requests that patient not be approached for participation (any reason)
