Few options are available for preserving female fertility to postpone childbirth. Although egg freezing with successful thawing is now possible, women' attitudes towards its use or the circumstances under which this technique may be considered remain unclear.
This study is a cross-sectional online survey. From November 2020 to January 2021, 848 questionnaires were collected through the Questionnaire Star Network platform, and a total of 750 valid answers were obtained.
For more than 40% of the interviewees, the level of knowledge about egg freezing was only 0-25%; 36.9% of the interviewees supported elective egg freezing, and the main factor affecting their approval was major; approximately 60% of interviewees believed that being married should not be a condition for freezing eggs; and 56.7% of the interviewees supported the establishment of an egg bank in China, and the main factor affecting their acceptance was the place of residence.
College students generally have a high level of recognition regarding elective egg freezing and the establishment of an egg bank, but their level of knowledge about egg freezing is low. Relevant knowledge must be strengthened to help college students achieve a correct understanding of elective egg freezing and egg bank establishment and then guide college students in developing a scientific dialectical attitude towards this technology.
推迟生育的女性可选择的保存生育能力的方法很少。尽管现在可以成功解冻卵子冷冻,但女性对其使用的态度或考虑使用该技术的情况仍不清楚。
本研究为横断面在线调查。2020 年 11 月至 2021 年 1 月,通过问卷星网络平台共收集了 848 份问卷,共获得 750 份有效回答。
超过 40%的受访者对卵子冷冻的了解程度仅为 0-25%;36.9%的受访者支持选择性卵子冷冻,主要影响他们批准的因素是主要因素;约 60%的受访者认为结婚不应成为冷冻卵子的条件;56.7%的受访者支持在中国建立卵子库,主要影响他们接受的因素是居住地。
大学生普遍对选择性卵子冷冻和建立卵子库有较高的认识,但对卵子冷冻的了解程度较低。必须加强相关知识,帮助大学生正确认识选择性卵子冷冻和卵子库的建立,然后引导大学生对这项技术形成科学辩证的态度。
