Summary

This study tests a digital education program designed to help newly diagnosed women with gynecological cancer learn about egg freezing (oocyte cryopreservation). The program uses videos, images, WhatsApp, and online meetings to teach about fertility preservation options. Researchers measure changes in knowledge, attitudes, and decision-making confidence before and after the program.
