Dealing with infertility is in no way easy. Neither is talking about it. But it might be necessary to discuss with a partner you’re about to make a lifelong commitment to.
“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,Accortt continued to point out that nowadays men are much more involved in family life, so they feel the hardships of perinatal loss just as deeply as women do.
