Is it true that anxiety and stress are one of the contributing factors of infertility problems?


sheila - May 22nd, 2010 12:56 AM

Yes, it's true because most people especially those couples who are having a hard time to get pregnant, most of the time experience a lot of stress and anxiety. The more they want to have a baby, the more stress and anxious they would become.

Yes it is. But it's kinda hard to avoid it. Most women work in order to supplement and contribute to the family income. Most women have careers. In a dream world, it would be great to be stress free. But in real life, we all learn to deal with it.

But if you want to get pregnant, then all factors must be taken into consideration including stress.

Yes. Stress and anxiety play a major role in causing infertility through the physical and psychological changes that associated with it leading to a vicious endless circle.

Women with functional infertility have a greater tendency towards anger and depression and anxiety, while females with organic infertility have a tendency towards depression.

Certainly, stress have known to cause a lot of stress, and stress do really contribute also to infertility.

Theory about why stress contribute to infertility problems, relies upon the fact that the body stress responses and sex hormones regulated by the same system in the brain.

its impossible to avoid stress while you are working or staying in the city. if i could afford it i would move somewhere more peaceful. i think the country air and slower pace would improve my chances.

There is a strong relationship between TTC, stress and infertility. Try more relaxing activities like aromatherapy, hydrotherapy and even a massage!

yes... Thus the stress can affect infertility both by the altered regulation of pituitary hormones and from the abnormal nervous-system influences on the ovaries and fallopian tubes.

Worry and anxiety can lead to infertility by shutting down the body's system and causing it not to function properly.

During my years of working with couples facing infertility I discovered that many couples who faced infertility were victims of worry, anxiety, and unforgiveness.
