Data analysis was conducted by SPSS statistical software included statistical analysis such as averages, standard deviations, correlation, regression, and t-test.RESULTS: Both negative and weak correlations were found between COMPI fertility problem stressscale and subscales of state-trait anxiety scale as well as the total score of state-trait anxiety scale. Interms of socio-demographic characteristics of the participants and their responses in state-trait anxietyscale and ISS forms, the correlation coefficients were also so low. The results also showed that publicofficials, health professionals, and educators showed lower state-trait anxiety scale (stress-related anxiety) scores.CONCLUSION: During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase in spontaneous pregnancy expectations. Although participants were mostly stressed because of the COVID-19 outbreak, they didn’tchange their in vitro fertilization treatment plans during the outbreak.
