Infertility and the stress of ART may be associated with changes in sexual desire, satisfaction, and activity. The purpose is to better understand these associations to support the sexual health and overall well-being of women undergoing fertility care.\n\nWomen who are assigned female at birth, under 45 years old, diagnosed with infertility, and attending appointments at the MUHC Reproductive Centre are invited to take part. Participants will be asked to complete an anonymous questionnaire while waiting for their clinical visit. The questionnaire includes the validated Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), which measures different aspects of sexual function, and additional questions about sexual activities, such as frequency of intercourse and other behaviors before and after fertility treatments.\n\nParticipants will not provide any identifying information. Completed questionnaires will be placed in a secure collection box to protect confidentiality.\n\nData from approximately 500 participants will be analyzed to explore how infertility type (primary vs. secondary), duration of infertility, and the number of unsuccessful ART cycles relate to sexual function and behavior. Findings from this study may help healthcare providers better recognize and address the sexual health concerns of women with infertility.\n\nThis study is approved by the McGill University Health Centre Research Ethics Board (REB #2025-11459).",[58,59,60,61,62,63,64],"Infertility Assisted Reproductive Technology","Sexual Behavior","Sexual Function","Sexual Dysfunction and Infertility","Sexual Dysfunction Female","Infertility","Assisted Reproductive Techniques",[66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75],"infertility","Assisted Reproductive Technology","ART","IVF","female sexual function","female sexual function index","FSFI","sexual behavior","sexual dysfunction","women's sexual health","2026-02-19",{"date":78,"type":79},"2026-02-20","ACTUAL",{"date":81,"type":79},"2026-02-06",{"date":83,"type":54},"2027-01",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
