| Abstract: | Anxiety is a common reaction of men undergoing assisted reproductive treatment. Our study aims to explore the risk factors of anxiety among men receiving assisted reproductive treatment. We found that the men who have primary school education were more anxious than those who have higher level education including junior middle school(X~2=13.01, P0.01), senior middle school(X~2=5.63, P=0.02), junior college(X~2=6.94, P=0.01) and higher education(X~2=13.78, P0.01). Moreover, the men who have severe financial burden were more anxious than the men who have mild(X~2=9.54, P0.01) or moderate(X~2=6.30, P=0.01) burden. For trait anxiety, the independent risk factor was financial burden of treatment. Therefore, we suggest that for men who prepare to receive assisted reproductive treatment, especially for men who had financial burden for treatment or only received primary education, pre-treatment counseling or psychological intervention should be provided. |
