Sumario:AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the change if any, in the motivations of women seeking a UTx and determine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey. RESULTS: 59% of women answered they were more motivated in achieving a pregnancy following the COVID-19 pandemic. 80% strongly agreed or agreed the pandemic had no impact on their motivation for a UTx, and 75% strongly agreed or agreed their desire for a baby strongly outweighs the risks of undergoing a UTx during a pandemic. CONCLUSION: Women continue to express a high level of motivation and desire for a UTx despite the risks imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
