Fertility is a challenge for 1 in 8 couples globally. Surprisingly, 60% do not share this reproductive challenge with their close circle. Even more striking, only 5% seek psychological counseling to face the problem. Upon receiving the news of fertility problems, between 25 and 65% of these couples may experience symptoms of depression.
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines depression as a mental disorder that modifies the perception and mood of those who suffer from it.
From a biological and cultural approach, it is common for people to be expected to be born, grow, and reproduce. When conception does not occur, doubts and questions arise that can affect the mental health of the couple:
These types of thoughts can undermine self-esteem, relationships, and the perception of self-worth. However, it is vital to understand that it is a medical situation that, with the appropriate support, has a solution.
