简要总结
Hong Kong's fertility preservation service is underutilized and limited, with low awareness among clinicians and young adults. Traditional Chinese culture may lead to social stigma, preventing discussion of fertility issues. A survey aims to explore awareness, knowledge, and acceptance of oocyte cryopreservation, enabling resource allocation for a culturally acceptable public education program and a dedicated referral system to improve oocyte cryopreservation services.

Hong Kong's fertility preservation service is underutilized and limited, with low awareness among clinicians and young adults. Traditional Chinese culture may lead to social stigma, preventing discussion of fertility issues. A survey aims to explore awareness, knowledge, and acceptance of oocyte cryopreservation, enabling resource allocation for a culturally acceptable public education program and a dedicated referral system to improve oocyte cryopreservation services.
The questionnaire will be in paper form and as an online survey. Potential participants will be provided with the study aim and respondent rights. Once verbal informed consent is obtained, participants will be asked to fill in the self-administered questionnaire. For the online survey, implied consent from the participants will be adopted when they complete the questionnaire on the webpage and return it to us.
In order to reach the 2 target groups, convenient sampling will be used. Questionnaires will be distributed to the patients who have undergone or will seek fertility preservation services in PWH. For the general public, they will be recruited online via an invitation link.
