Abstract

Millions of people around the world affect infertility in their reproductive age. Infertility has a major impact on  the couples’ families and communities in which they live. Around 10% to 15% of couples are infertile in a general  population. IVF is one of the option when we think to cure the infertility to those couple in which either of them  has been diagnosed with problem of having a baby. In vitro fertilization IVF is one of the most promised types  of assisted reproductive technology (ART). The latest report, from 2018, shows that 50% of women ages 35 gone  through IVF procedures and resulted in a live birth of baby. 3.9% of the egg transfers done women ages 42 and older  and it resulted in a live birth. If a woman is under childlessness, she was experiencing years of the stress from the  beginning onwards from where the couple is incapable of having a baby. At that time, she gets to know that she  needs to undergo in vitro fertilization, feeling of stress will magnify. IVF is a series of intense medical procedure  so when a women passes through the treatment if she felt emotional stress is which is not unusual. Success rate of  IVF treatment varies depending on several factors, so if unfortunately the treatment fails it will definitely cause a  dramatic emotional distress in the couple especially in case of females. The objective of our study is to analysis the  stress of women when she preparing for, during the procedure and after the treatment.  In short it is concluded that before during and after the procedure of IVF women generally faces stress in its  various degrees. In wide spectrum, marital, social, physical, emotional, financial, and religious status causes stress  in women.
