Does Stress Affect IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)?

Intense stress can cause various health problems in the long-term. If the body is exposed to extreme stress when a couple decides to get IVF treatment, that couple might experience some issues against achieving their goals. According to studies, women struggling with infertility have the same levels of anxiety and depression as the women struggling with cancer. The stress levels tend to increase day by day during a long term of failed pregnancy attempts. Therefore, it is recommended for couples who are anxious and stressed to receive psychological support before getting IVF treatment, since mood and encouragement are highly important.
