So, what is the best way to deal with infertility?
Counselors tell you that if there is a treatment one should go for it. Otherwise,
a visit to a professional counselor or a family therapist can help.
What kind of pressures does infertility put on a marriage?
“It can bring a lot of negativity in relationship. The blame –game starts,
agitation and irritation between the partners becomes frequent .There is a
disconnection in terms of physical, mental and emotional intimacy. Low
self-confidence of the infertile person also hampers the relationship. Family
expectation adds it to all. Self-pity, suicidal tendencies and depression are
common,” Dr Nishu Shukla, a marriage counselor with The Counselling Institute,
says.
Women, however, are better equipped to deal with the situation.”
they are more sensitive and have a better understanding of the pain and agony.
Acceptance is higher in women. They
seldom break a marriage due to an infertile husband,” Dr Nishu explains.
