The research was designed as a randomized controlled study to determine the effectiveness of a modular cloud-based training platform in increasing awareness of fertility preservation.
The study aims to develop a free, modular, cloud-based, sustainable digital platform to increase fertility awareness. The platform will provide basic information on fertility preservation methods in plain language to support informed decisions. Content will be based on European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) , International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) and Asian Society of Gynecologic Oncology (ASCO) guidelines. The study targets not only cancer patients but also women requesting fertility preservation for medical or social reasons.
In the first stage, the platform will be designed with the ADDIE instructional design model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) and content created per international guidelines. In the second stage, the prototype will be pilot-tested and revised. In the third stage, effectiveness will be tested through a randomized controlled trial. Educational modules will be provided to the intervention group, while the control group will receive brochures. The study will include women aged 18-45 with early-stage gynecological cancer (cervix, ovary, tube, endometrium) at Prof. Dr. Cemil Tascioglu City Hospital, untreated. Participants must have Turkish literacy and internet access. Sample size, calculated with G*Power, is 140 total (70 per group).
This is a randomized controlled experimental study. The research was carried out in the Prof. Dr. Cemil Tascioglu City Hospital.

| Control- Routine information | No Intervention | The control group will be given an educational brochure with similar features for fertility preservation. | |
| İntervention- Using the educational platform | Experimental | Prof. Dr. Cemil Taşçıoğlu City Hospital will divide female patients of reproductive age (18-45 years) who have been diagnosed with gynecological cancer (early-stage cervical, ovarian, tubal, and endometrial cancer) and have not yet started treatment, and who have been referred for egg/ovarian tissue/embryo freezing, into two groups. The intervention group will use the cloud-based sustainable education platform developed for fertility preservation within the scope of the study. The control group will be given an educational brochure with similar features for fertility preservation. |

| Awareness rates regarding fertility preservation options among patients in the experimental and control groups | These data will be obtained through the answers given to the "Awareness status questionnaire for fertility protection". | Change from beginning of the study and after 3 weeks of after the mobile application is given |
| fertility preservation knowledge scores | The Fertility Health Knowledge Scale was developed to evaluate individuals' level of knowledge about fertility health; The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale was conducted. In this study, the knowledge level of the participants regarding fertility/fertility preservation will be evaluated based on the knowledge score using the scale in question. | Change from beginning of the study and after 3 weeks of after the mobile application is given |
| fertility preservation attitude scores | The Attitudes Toward Fertility and Childbearing Scale was developed to evaluate the attitudes of women who have not yet become mothers towards fertility and childbearing. The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale was conducted. In this study, participants' attitude scores (sub-dimensions and total attitude level) towards fertility and childbearing will be evaluated using the scale in question. | Change from beginning of the study and after 3 weeks of after the mobile application is given |
