Abstract
Several questions need to be answered before covering the subject of emotional support and guidance of IVF patients. These include what we actually know about the desire for a child, the emotional characteristics typical of infertility patients and especially of IVF patients, how IVF patients justify their motivations for their desire for a child, cope with the anguish caused by infertility, and how much we know about the stress surrounding IVF treatment. These questions will be discussed in the following article.Keywords
