Infertility counseling

Abstract

Infertility, whether reasons known or unexplained, has been shown to cause a high amount of stress for people who receive this diagnosis. Increased emotional stress can lead to more of a decreased chance of conception, along with other medical problems. Around the world infertility counseling is becoming a new focus for medical professionals to work combined with fertility treatments and help couples conceive. Couples using medicines to help with conception, undergoing intrauterine insemination, and in vitro fertilization who have added counseling to treatment have shown an increase in conception rates.
