However, the dyadic associations between physical activity intensity and fertility-related quality of life (FertiQoL) remains insufficiently explored. This study aimed to examine dyadic associations between physical activity intensity and FertiQoL among infertile couples undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This cross-sectional study included 364 infertile couples receiving ovulation induction treatment at a reproductive medicine center. Physical activity levels and FertiQoL were assessed using validated questionnaires. Multivariable linear regression was used to examine overall associations between physical activity and FertiQoL domains. The Actor\u2013Partner Interdependence Model (APIM) was applied to estimate actor associations (individual physical activity with own FertiQoL) and partner associations (individual physical activity with spouse\u2019s FertiQoL).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Women reported significantly lower physical activity levels and FertiQoL scores compared to men (all\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f&amp;lt;\u202f0.05). Overall, higher total physical activity (TPA) and most intensity levels were positively associated with multiple FertiQoL domains. The adjusted APIM analysis demonstrated a significant actor association among husbands, whereby higher light physical activity (LPA) was associated with better own FertiQoL (\n                      <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\n                      =\u202f0.205, 95% CI: 0.076 to 0.335,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      =\u202f0.002). Notably, distinct intensity-dependent partner effects were observed: wives\u2019 moderate physical activity (MPA) was positively associated with husbands\u2019 FertiQoL (\n                      <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f0.150, 95% CI: 0.024 to 0.277,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f0.021), whereas wives\u2019 vigorous physical activity (VPA) was negatively associated with husbands\u2019 FertiQoL (\n                      <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f\u22120.184, 95% CI: \u22120.307 to \u22120.061,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f0.004).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Physical activity is significantly associated with quality of life among infertile couples in an intensity-dependent manner. More importantly, physical activity demonstrates dyadic interdependence, with wives\u2019 physical activity exerting intensity-specific effects on husbands\u2019 FertiQoL. These findings highlight the importance of considering couple-level lifestyle behaviors in infertility care and suggest that dyadic lifestyle approaches warrant further evaluation as potential supportive strategies during ART treatment.<\/jats:p>\n
