Purpose: This descriptive study was conducted to identify the factors causing stress in women undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Materials and methods: The study sample consisted of 151 women who were receiving IVF therapy in the assisted reproductive techniques units of three state hospitals in Istanbul. The study data were collected using a Questionnaire and a Distress/Problem Identification form both developed by the investigators. Results: A considerable percentage of the women whose income was less than their expenses stated that they feared their infertility treatment would be a failure. The majority of the women who gave the answer “the cause is not known” or “me” when they are asked “who is responsible for not being able to have a child” stated that they were annoyed when people asked questions about having children and felt strained and uneasy on the days of coming to the center. Conclusions: We suggest that trainings should be planned for health teams and health teams should establish support groups and organize meetings for couples
