Developing and validating an evidence-based health promotion program for reproductive donors reflecting their challenges in the process of donation decision-making: a multi-method study protocol

The theoretical framework generated at the first stage will demonstrate reproductive donors' concerns regarding donation decision-making, the context in which they make their decisions, the strategies they adopt to respond to their issues, and their consequences. It will demonstrate conditions that facilitate or hinder donors' decision-making. The findings of this stage will inform the development of a health promotion program, which will be evidence-based and tailored to the needs of reproductive donors and the sociocultural context in which they undergo the donation process. This program, subject to validation by experts, could be adopted by fertility centers to enhance reproductive donors' health and quality of life. The findings of this study can be used as a basis for further relevant research.
