&lt;strong&gt;Instrument &amp; Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted&amp;nbsp;in 2025 on 208 female medical sciences students. Data collection tools included the Cardiff&amp;nbsp;Fertility Knowledge Scale, the Short Form Health Literacy for Iranian Adults, and the Women&amp;rsquo;s&lt;br&gt;
Reproductive Health Literacy Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS 24. For inferential&amp;nbsp;analysis, Spearman&amp;rsquo;s correlation and backward linear regression were employed.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Findings:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;The mean age of participants was 22.34&amp;plusmn;3.27 years. The mean fertility knowledge&amp;nbsp;score was 7.68 out of 13, while the mean scores for general health literacy and reproductive&amp;nbsp;health literacy were 74.07 and 73.54 out of 100, respectively. A significant positive correlation&amp;nbsp;was observed between fertility knowledge and both general health literacy (r=0.401; p&lt;0.001)&amp;nbsp;and reproductive health literacy (r=0.386; p&lt;0.001). Regression analysis revealed that general&amp;nbsp;health literacy (p=0.003) and reproductive health literacy (p=0.007) were significant positive&amp;nbsp;predictors of fertility knowledge.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Fertility knowledge among female university students is moderate and influenced&amp;nbsp;by both general and reproductive health literacy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</abstract>
