| Motivation is an internal force that causes a certain behavior in an individual, and fertility is a voluntary action in which motivation has a direct involvement. Fertility motivation is the primary driver of fertility behavior and an important component of fertility decision-making. Women's reproductive capability is directly related to the positive dimension of fertility motivation and inversely related to the negative dimension of motivation. The practical definition of fertility motivation in the present study is similar to the theoretical definition and will be measured with the help of Miller's Fertility Motivation Questionnaire. Timepoint: Before the start of the intervention, after the end of the sessions, and one month after the end of the intervention, the questionnaire will be filled out again by the two groups. Method of measurement: Miller's Childbearing Motivation Questionnaire has 49 items, and due to the two-part questionnaire and the inability to add the two scores, each person receives two scores from the positive and negative motivation subsets. Positive childbearing motivations consist of 28 questions, which have 5 domains including the pleasure of pregnancy, birth, and childhood, traditional perspective, satisfaction with parenting, feeling needed and survival, and instrumental use of the child. To score this section, a Likert scale is used, ranging from "I completely disagree" with a score of 1 to "I completely agree" with a score of 4. Negative childbearing motivations consist of 4 domains including fear of childbirth, parental stress, child care challenges, and discomfort with pregnancy and birth, which are measured by 21 questions, and a Likert scale is used, ranging from "I completely disagree" with a score of 1 to "I completely agree" with a score of 4.;The term fertility desire in this study is consistent with the theoretical definition, which is measured based on the standard fertility desire scale (FDS).
