Psychological difficulties in accepting the diagnosis “male infertility”

The problem which in most cases can be solved is worsened by psychological rejection, unwillingness to be examined and treated, evolving into categorical refusal which may lead to problems in a family and possibly in relations with friends and colleagues. All that can be avoided if you treat the difficulties that have arisen like man – therefore carefully, trying to find an honorable way out of the situation.

Diagnosis infertility

Two loving people are dreaming of the simplest and the most marvelous miracle – a baby. Unfortunately, in life things happen that birth of a child does not occur naturally. Expectation gives way to anxiety, which is sometimes replaced by despair. But one must not give up: there are no hopeless situations, there is lack of information, lack of reliable allies or lack of one’s own activity. We have to fight for our happiness! EmbryLife center is ready to prove that there no infertile men. There are just irrational fears. There will be a child! After all, modern science can perform miracles.
