2 Background Infertility is defined as the failure of a couple to conceive a pregnancy after trying to do so for at least one full year. It has a huge psychological burden on the infertile couple especially the women. It may lead to depression or even suicidal tendencies, and much other psychological pathology. 2
3 Background (Cont.) Increasing the level of knowledge may help in decreasing the incidence of infertility by avoiding the risk factors that might lead to it. It may also help the society understand and empathize with the infertile couple which eventually might lead to decreasing the psychological burden of the subject at hand. 3
4 Objectives To assess knowledge of infertile & fertile Saudi subjects on infertility. To assess attitude of infertile & fertile Saudi subjects towards infertility and its social consequences To identify infertile subjects' expectations of success rate of IVF.

36 Conclusion People with limited knowledge about fertility may engage in ineffective behaviors that could delay seeking effective interventions. These findings have implications for health care providers regarding the reluctance that couples experiencing fertility problems may have, at least initially, to accept some interventions required for the couple to conceive. Compared with fertile outpatients, patients with infertility showed significantly more favorable attitudes toward infertility and various interventions, such as IVF or fertility drugs. 36
37 Recommendations Public education campaigns should be directed toward correcting erroneous beliefs about the risk factors associated with infertility. Special emphasis should be placed on directing IVF patients to the correct knowledge and healthy practices and helping them seek medical advice as their only preference for treatment. Future research is necessary to determine the extent to which the pattern of attitudes found here is representative of that in the population facing infertility as well as in the general population. 37
