Women’s experience of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) diagnosis: update on actual practices and women’s follow-up (EMPOIHER Study)
While participants expressed general satisfaction with the communication of their POI diagnosis, there is room for improvement in clinicians' communication skills regarding providing information and empathy. Furthermore, women should be offered psychological support following POI diagnosis. Our findings emphasise the need for guidelines concerning the POI disclosure process. In this study, no association was found between women's satisfaction with POI announcement and their adherence to MHT and gynecologic follow-up.
