ABSTRACT

Background: Knowledge of the most frequent factors associated with infertility may have a role in decreasing the incidence of infertility by avoiding such factors. Additionally, proper understanding of reproductive-related facts is essential to have proper decision regarding fertility among married couples. This study aimed to assess the awareness and knowledge of general population about infertility. Material and methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out online among general adult Saudi population living in AlHassa, Saudi Arabia. A valid reliable questionnaire was used for data collection, composed of socio-demographic data and nine knowledge statements regarding fertility and infertility. Results: A total of 371 adults living responded.Majority were females (91.1%). Their age ranged between 18 and 60 years with an arithmetic mean of 35.5 years and standard deviation of 7.7 years. Overall, knowledge of the participants about infertility was adequate amng only 28.8% of them. Divorced/widowed and married participants were more knowledgeable about infertility than singles (level of adequate knowledge was 53.3% and 29.9% vs. 13.3%, respectively), p=0.007. More than half (51.9%) of postgraduates compared to only 24.4% of secondary school/below graduated expressed adequate knowledge about infertility, p=0.016. Conclusion: Knowledge of Saudi general population living in AlHassa regarding infertility biological concepts is overall inadequate. We recommended organizing educational activities for them at outpatient clinics of hospitals as well as primary care centers regarding the biological aspects of fertility/infertility.
