We plan to perform a pilot study in which women with primary infertility seeking an initial fertility consultation will be randomized into either a standard treatment group or an 8-week virtual Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program. Primary outcomes included retention and survey completion rates. Secondary outcomes included Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Perceived Stress Score (PSS), Fertility Problem Index (FPI), pregnancy rates, intention to pursue treatment and % pursuing treatment.
