Abstract

Few experimentally rigorous studies have been conducted to determine the emotional impact of the infertility investigation on the infertile couple. In response to the deficit in rigorous experimental research, a longitudinal, exploratory study of 43 primary infertile couples was conducted. The study was conducted to determine if changes occurred in the marital relationships, sexual satisfaction, and levels of psychologic distress of the couples in the study as they progressed through the medical investigation of their infertility. Changes were assessed based on sex, diagnostic information, and time spent trying to conceive. Results indicated that significant distress was experienced by couples during the initial medical interview and at the time of diagnosis. Relationship quality did not appear to deteriorate as a result of the medical investigation; however, questions were raised regarding the sexual relationships of couples receiving an unexplained infertility diagnosis.

摘要

很少有进行过严格实验的研究来确定不孕症检查对不孕夫妇的情感影响。针对严格实验研究的不足，对43对原发性不孕夫妇进行了一项纵向探索性研究。该研究旨在确定研究中的夫妇在进行不孕症医学检查过程中，其婚姻关系、性满意度和心理困扰程度是否发生变化。根据性别、诊断信息和尝试受孕的时间来评估变化情况。结果表明，夫妇在初次医学问诊时和诊断时经历了显著的困扰。医学检查似乎并未导致关系质量恶化；然而，对于被诊断为不明原因不孕症的夫妇的性关系，人们提出了疑问。
