Why IVF failure can be so devastating

The fact that the cycle may fail is the major fear every IVF patient has to confront. An IVF failure can be a major personal devastation for many patients. This is because many infertile couples will treat the failure as a personal failure - when their IVF cycle fails , they blame themselves for the failure .

There are multiple reasons for this. Many infertile have self-esteem issues , and think of themselves as being flawed, because their bodies don't work properly, which is why they have not been able to get pregnant in their own bedroom. They start the cycle by carrying a lot of emotional baggage , and the failure just exacerbates these issues.

  2. I agree that we do carry a big emotional baggage, but do you think is it even possible to go through this process unattached and emotion free?

  3. I agree it's not easy - but, yes, it is possible ! As the Gita preaches - focus on your actions, and don't worry about the fruits. It's not easy to be emotionally detached when your heart hurts, but it's a goal worth striving for. These skills will help in coping with the other ups and downs life will try to trip you up with !
