Infertility is a condition affecting up to 15% of couples, which may require the intervention of assisted reproductive techniques (ART). In these couples, both female and male psychological wellbeing is strongly affected by the prolonged and exhausting infertility path. Although various authors have been studying the possible implications of psychological distress in ART outcomes (i.e., clinical pregnancy rates and live birth rates), new insights have been brought on concerning the couple health and wellbeing. Accordingly, infertility may be a cause of distress because it results in an inability to fulfil traditional roles.

Abstract

Infertility is a condition affecting up to 15% of couples, which may require the intervention of assisted reproductive techniques (ART). In these couples, both female and male psychological wellbeing is strongly affected by the prolonged and exhausting infertility path. Although various authors have been studying the possible implications of psychological distress in ART outcomes (i.e., clinical pregnancy rates and live birth rates), new insights have been brought on concerning the couple health and wellbeing. Accordingly, infertility may be a cause of distress because it results in an inability to fulfil traditional roles.
