Yoga for Mental Health in IVF Patients
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a four-week yoga program works to improve quality of life in people undergoing IVF (In Vitro Fertilization). It will also learn if a four-week yoga program decreases anxiety and depression symptoms in people undergoing IVF.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does a four-week yoga program effect quality of life, anxiety, and depression symptoms in people undergoing IVF?
* Do the effects vary by individual characteristics of the people in the study?
Researchers will compare the yoga intervention group to routine care as usual.
Participants will:
* Participate in a weekly virtual yoga class for four weeks (total of four yoga classes), or follow routine care as usual while undergoing IVF.
* Take three online surveys every 4 weeks.
* Be involved in the study for 8 weeks.
