A fertility treatment is a stressful and emotional process and has a major effect on relationships.
It affects both parties in some or other way.
This is because the need to have a baby is often greater for one party and the fact the treatment will requires more specific dedication from one of the parties.
Often the assistance of an egg donation donor or surrogate is required, which further increases the need for complete alignment and emotional consensus.
How a marriage survives fertility treatment or whether couples remain together and close is determined by how they approach the whole process and whether there is a thorough understanding of the commitment, the process and the expectations.
Very often men may not appear to be as enthusiastic about involving an egg donation donor because they see the emotional and physical havoc the treatment has on their female partner.
This concern and love can be viewed as lack of interest and not wanting the same out of life.
It may actually be that a man also wants to have a child or children but really fears for how his partner may accept bad news and the obsession during the process.
Woman may also experience weight gain undergoing ongoing fertility treatment.
This may be exacerbated by lack of exercise .
Although woman are encouraged to continue with normal activities, some opt out of exercise in an effort to really optimise the chances for conception during the implantation stage.
These aspects of putting your life on hold and changing normal routines also affects the emotional status.
The compulsion of one party to always talk about the topic may also create uneasiness.
People needing the assistance of artificial means to reproduce - whether by egg donation, surrogacy or sperm donation are exposed to significantly more challenges than people conceiving in the normal fashion.
It may greatly add value to determine and discuss to what extent the artificial treatment should have on the relationship and confirm priorities at all stages.
