İnfertilite, birçok kadının, fiziksel ve psikolojik olarak negatif etkilendiği bir durum olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Birçok çift infertilite deneyimlemekle birlikte birçok olguda hamile kalamama durumunda sosyal damgalanmaya (stigma) maruz kalan kadınlar olmaktadır. Yapılan araştırmalar duygu odaklı baş etme mekanizmalarının ve yeni yaşam odakları bulmanın, infertilitenin olumsuz etkileri ile ve ilişkili damgalanma etkileriyle baş etmede etkili olduğunu desteklemektedir. Bu çalışmadaki amacımız, infertilitenin kadınlar üzerindeki olumsuz psikolojik etkilerine ve stigma deneyimlerine yönelik baş etmede etkili stratejiler sunmaktır.
