Objectives: This study aims to measure the self-efficacy among women who have infertility in Al-Hilla City, Iraq.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Al-Hilla City, Iraq, to measure the self-efficacy among infertile women. Using the non-probability purposive sampling method, 107 (Mean±SD age: 28.81±6.306 years) women with infertility were recruited. The study data were collected from the study samples using the infertility self-efficacy scale questionnaire. It is scored on a 3-point Likert scale to measure self-efficacy among infertile women.
Results: The results show that the overall self-efficacy of infertile women is low. Also, there is a significant association between the self-efficacy of infertile women with all study parameters (P<0.05) except the age and level of education.
Discussion: The highest percentage of the study samples were less than 30 years and lived in the urban area. The overall self-efficacy among infertile women was low, and the correlation between self-efficacy and their demographical data was significant except for the age and level of education.
