Receiving an infertility diagnosis can create many emotions. Depression, anxiety, frustration, anger, and confusion to name a few. These emotions are common and can come and go through your fertility journey. You find yourself quickly being asked to make important medical decisions quickly. You are being given medical terminology that can be confusing and fearful. Somehow you must quickly learn to accept what is versus what you had envisioned things to be or make peace with something you always wanted but might not be able to have.
These decisions, feelings and situations can be painful, debilitating, overwhelming, scary, and exhausting. Navigating this new world of infertility is beyond difficult. And infertility and going through fertility treatments can put a strain on your relationship, on your physical and your emotional well-being.
