Purpose: This study aimed to explore women’s lived experiences regarding the psychosocial consequences of oocyte cryopreservation.

Method: A descriptive phenomenological approach was adopted. Using purposive sampling, 15 women with oocyte cryopreservation experience were selected. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using Colaizzi’s seven-step method.

Study Population: The study population consisted of women aged 26–40 years who had undergone oocyte cryopreservation.

Sampling Method: Purposive sampling was employed to recruit participants from obstetrics and gynecology centers specializing in fertility preservation.

Findings: The analysis revealed two main categories: psychological consequences and social consequences. Psychological consequences included five subcategories: anxiety, reduced fear of the future, mental order, reduced financial worries, and decreased psychological pressure. Social consequences comprised three subcategories: criticism and opposition from others, cultural pressures, and social role and identity.

Conclusion: The findings indicate that women who choose oocyte cryopreservation generally make informed decisions and experience relative internal satisfaction. However, they often face social challenges, including cultural resistance and opposition from their social circles. It is essential to promote broader cultural awareness and acceptance to reduce social interference and support women’s autonomous reproductive choices.
