Infertility Care: Bridging the Emotional and Physical Gaps in Gynecological Nursing

Abstract

Infertility is a complex medical condition defined by the
inability to achieve a clinical pregnancy after 12 months
of regular and unprotected sexual intercourse, impacting
approximately 8–12% of reproductive-aged couples
worldwide.[1] This multifaceted issue presents a range of
psychological, physical, mental, spiritual, and medical
challenges for individuals and their partners, often leading
to significant emotional and relational strain.[2] While male
infertility is an important aspect of infertility discussions,
this editorial will specifically focus on female infertility.
Understanding fecundability, or the probability of conceiving
within a single menstrual cycle, is essential for effective
management and treatment.
