Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of transtheoretical model (TTM)-based training provided to women with risky lifestyle behaviors during the preconceptional period. The preconceptional period is a critical time for women to modify health behaviors, as addressing these risks early can prevent adverse obstetric outcomes. TTM conceptualizes behavior change as a process and identifies distinct stages individuals progress through during this process. The study examines the impact of TTM-based interventions on improving unhealthy lifestyle behaviors in women before pregnancy.
