Motivation and Background

This project will try to present the IVF consent form information in a manner that will be more meaningful for the patients as they go through the consent process. We hope that by providing a user-friendly website, the patients can view and interact with the consent form material, rather than just reading the text on a paper consent form, and better understand the process and risks of an IVF procedure. This will then reduce patient stress as well as help clinicians understand some of the specific topics that patients need more information about,while ensuring that they have read all the material pertaining to the risks and procedures in IVF treatments.
