Infertility is experienced as a stressful life crisis that has been compared to that of cancer and other devastating diseases (Domar, A., et al., 1993). Uncertainty and lack of control are two of the most challenging aspects of infertility. Instead, choose one realistic action item for 2024—pick something that is aligned with where you are on your family-building journey right now. Maybe it’s all too overwhelming and speaking with a reproductive mental health counselor is the right step for you. It’s all about accepting where you are in your journey right now and not feeling stuck.
