Impacts of Infertility Treatment
Infertility is a medical condition which affects one in six couples. It can affect every part of a person or couple’s life – and may challenge the way you feel about yourself, your relationship with others, your work and your outlook on life.
Fewer situations in life are as demanding and overwhelming as fertility treatment, however despite the growing number of people needing medical intervention to conceive, it can be a time of extreme isolation.
Patients often express a sense of loss of control over their lives and feel like they are on an emotional roller coaster. Often these feeling are expressed as anxiety, grief, frustration and anger.
We strongly believe in caring for your emotional health as well as your physical wellbeing, that is why at Repromed our counselling services are free for our patients.
