How To Talk About Infertility With Your Partner

“Self-blame, guilt, and shame play a large role in those struggling with infertility,” Dr. Alan Copperman, Medical Director says. “Couples ultimately overcome the challenges of infertility better as a team than as individuals.”

“Even if you believe you’re the only partner with fertility concerns (and you might not be), remember that you’re still not alone. If you frame your discussion in terms of “we,” you will feel like a team,” says Dr. Georgia Witkin, Head of Patient Services Development.
