External Supports

Patients face stresses from not only infertility procedures themselves but also the psychological and social aspects of these interventions, including uncertainties, failures, costs, and loss of dreams. These physical, social, psychological, financial, and moral strains can exacerbate each another. Patients who quickly succeed in getting a “take-home baby” generally feel pleased with their treatment. But treatment failures can mean loss of purpose, identity, hopes, and dreams, thus embittering, confusing, and disturbing patients. Doctors may be overly optimistic, fueling eventual patient disappointments. Couples can disagree over how much effort, money, and time to spend in trying to have a healthy child—how to weigh medical odds against financial and psychological costs. External supports range from negative to positive and from weak to strong. Well-meaning outsiders may offer suggestions that patients feel are unhelpful. These reproductive journeys can strain marriages, friendships, and jobs. Communication about these issues can help but be difficult.
