Özet:

 The study aimed to investigate the types of social support provided by forum members in response to questions posed by women with infertile spouses on the Womens Club forum, specifically within discussions centered on divorce due to infertility. Topics and comments on the subject of divorce due to male-related infertility in the Womens Club forum between 2008 and 2023 were analyzed. Five topics and 487 comments were analyzed through inductive thematic analysis, and 458 different codes emerged. The codes were grouped into four themes: informational support, emotional support, intellectual and critical support, and relationship improvement support. Consequently, women considering divorce due to male-related infertility are provided informational, emotional, and relationship-focused, and querying social support through the forum. These types of social support indicate factors that may affect marital adjustment during the infertility process. Therefore, it is recommended that experts who provide professional support to these couples should pay attention to these factors and that the scope of psychosocial services currently provided in Turkey should be person-specific to cover the social support needs of these couples.

 Çalışmanın amacı, Kadınlar Kulübü forumunda eşi infertil olan kadınların infertilite sebebiyle boşanma odaklı sorularına forum üyelerinin verdikleri yanıtlar üzerinden sosyal destek türlerini incelemektir. 2008-2023 yılları arasında Kadınlar Kulübü forumunda erkeğe bağlı infertilite nedeniyle boşanma konusuyla ilgili başlıklar ve yorumlar analiz edilmiştir. Beş konu başlığı ve 487 yorum tümevarımsal tematik analiz yoluyla analiz edilmiş ve 458 farklı kod ortaya çıkmıştır. Kodlar dört tema altında toplanmıştır: bilgi desteği, duygusal destek, entellektüel-eleştirel destek ve ilişki geliştirme desteği. Sonuç olarak erkek kaynaklı infertilite nedeniyle boşanmayı düşünen kadınlara forum aracılığıyla bilgi, duygu, ilişki ve sorgulama odaklı sosyal destek sağlanmaktadır. Bu sosyal destek türleri, infertilite sürecinde evlilik uyumunu etkileyebilecek faktörlere işaret etmektedir. Bu nedenle, bu çiftlere profesyonel destek sağlayan uzmanların bu faktörlere dikkat etmesi ve Türkiyede hâlihazırda sunulan psikososyal hizmetlerin kapsamının bu çiftlerin sosyal destek ihtiyaçlarını karşılayacak şekilde kişiye özel olması önerilmektedir.
