Dealing with the Stress of Infertility

Dealing with StressWe don't completely understand the connection between stress and infertility. But studies have shown that women under stress may have trouble getting pregnant. Stress reduction is not a cure for infertility, of course. But reducing stress can help you both enjoy the journey more.

Acupressure, acupuncture, massage therapy, meditation and stress reduction programs can help you relax. Try out relaxation techniques like qigong exercises to enhance the body's internal energy flow and promote general well-being. Both men and women can benefit.
