Background & Aim: One of the important steps in identification of problems in infertile couples using assisted reproductive donation procedures, is investigating their attitude about these procedures and factors affecting it, so this study was conducted to investigate the association of socio-demographic characteristics of infertile men and women with their attitude towards donation procedures.
Methods: This descriptive- correlational study was carried out on 230 infertile men and women that were selected using convenience sampling from Milad infertility research center in Mashhad, Iran. Data were collected by socio-demographic characteristics and attitudes towards donation procedures questionnaires and were analyzed using SPSS software version 14 and statistical tests including t-test, Mann-Whitney, chi-square, ANOVA and Spearman correlation coefficient test. P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: The mean score attitude of infertile women (58.12 ± 3.3) and infertile men (57.12 ± 8.0) was moderate and did not show any significant difference (P> 0.05). Among socio-demographic characteristics studied, the religious variables in women (P = 0.022) and income level (P =0.016) and assurance of quality of care in men (P =0.021) were significantly different with attitude.
Conclusion: Attitudes of men and women towards Donation Procedures are modest and religious variables affect women's attitudes and income levels, also, assurances of quality of care affect men's attitudes.
