Fertility, infertility, and mental health

from Women's Wellness Psychiatry · host Anna Glezer, MD

The experience of a difficult fertility journey is one that can have significant mental health effects. In this episode we'll discuss many of the factors that contribute - from interpersonal and relationship challenges, to work difficulties, financial strain, and much more. Psychological stress is also a leading reason why someone might choose to stop treatment, and I'll also share a framework for how to make that kind of difficult decision and key factors that can be protective for mental health. Resources:Egg Whisperer Show: Chronically Reel and Clinically RelevantEp. 22 on Infertility AwarenessEp. 106 on Grief and LossTo learn more about me and my reproductive & integrative psychiatry clinic helping patients across California, please visit - AnnaGlezerMD.comTo sign up for the Fellowship in Reproductive & Integrative Psychiatry, please visit:  PsychiatryFellowship.com.
