Infertility can come as a big blow, especially for people who couldn’t wait to have kids of their own. And even though there are other ways to become parents, such news, usually accompanied by a mix of overwhelming emotions, takes time to cope with.
According to a report released by Cedars-Sinai Hospital, a study of infertile couples’ experience found that half of the surveyed women and 15% of the surveyed men described infertility as the most upsetting experience of their lives.
“For some women and couples, there can be this expectation, a dream or plan that they had about having children, and they feel robbed of that dream,” noted Dr. Eynav Accortt, a clinical psychologist and director of the Reproductive Psychology Program at Cedars-Sinai Hospital.
Needless to say, having your dream taken away from you is not something one can talk about easily. To make matters worse, there is still a stigma surrounding infertility that makes opening up that much more difficult, even though it’s not that rare of an occurrence; according to the WHO, one-in-six people globally are affected by infertility.
