Women's Preferences in Early Pregnancy Loss Management: A Focus on Psychological Considerations Using the Analytic Hierarchy Process
Preferences varied by treatment choice, indicating that psychological distress is defined differently across women. The AHP method enabled nuanced insights into individual decision-making. Emotional factors may influence preference patterns and should be considered in clinical counselling. These findings support the need for individualized counselling and shared decision-making. The results may inform the development of clinical tools and guidelines.
