On the day of IVF-ET with donor sperm transplantation, patients were investigated with general data questionnaire, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) to analyze their anxiety and depression scores and their influencing factors.Results: Scores of anxiety and depression on the day of transplantation in patients receiving IVF-ET with donor sperm were 43.98± 6.80 and 46.03± 10.61 respectively, which were higher compared to levels of Chinese health norm (P< 0.05). The anxiety score of patients’ spouses was 41.23± 6.69 and depression score was 44.23± 11.65, which were higher compared to levels of Chinese health norm (P< 0.05). Score of anxiety and depression of women was significantly higher compared to those of their spouse (P< 0.05). Anxiety and depression scores of women in non-pregnant group were significantly higher compared to those in pregnant group (P< 0.05). Regression analysis showed that education level and annual family income were influencing factors of anxiety and depression scores of IVF-ET with donor sperm couples on the day of transfer, and number of eggs taken and transfer times were influencing factors of depression scores of IVF-ET with donor sperm patients on the day of transfer.Conclusion: Psychological state of couples receiving IVF-ET with donor sperm was significantly affected, especially in female side. Medical staff should focus on patients with low education level, low family income, and more times of transfer and egg retrieval, and take targeted intervention measures to keep them in good psychological state, which is conducive to improving pregnancy outcome.Keywords: in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer with donor sperm, day of transfer, anxiety, depression, psychological state
