Received: May 04, 2021; Published: May 27, 2021 Abstract Objective: Infertility is an unpleasant emotional experience and is one of the factors that affect the quality of life. Psychological prob- lems caused by infertility can affect fertility success. This study conducted to investigate quality of life and related factors in infertile women. Methods: This cross-sectional study carried out on 80 infertile women referred to the infertility treatment center of Imam Khomeini Hospital in Sari, Iran. Data gathered by World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL)-BREF questionnaire and analyzed using Pearson’s and Spearman’s correlation coefficient and Kruskal-Wallis test in SPSS version 24 (P < 0.05). Results: Mean age of women was 33 ± 5.70 years. Quality of life of them was good (32.5%), moderate (61.2%), and poor (6.2%). there was a reverse relationship between the duration of trying to conceive and quality of life, meaning that increase of this duration was associated with decreased quality of life (P = 0.05). The increase in duration of cohabitation resulted in a lower number of individuals with a good life quality level and a higher number of subjects with a moderate level of quality of life. In all levels the desire to have a child resulted in moderate life quality in most of the participants. Findings also indicated a significant relationship between quality of life and monthly income, people with lower economic status had lower quality of life (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Because two-thirds of people had a moderate quality of life, awareness of healthcare providers about this issue and their needs will lead to better service provision to this group.
