The Psychogenic Factor in Infertility

Abstract
The influence of the psyche upon human fertility continues to be underestimated by many workers in the field. For certain individuals and couples there appears to be an unconscious link between a lowering of the level of fertility, and psychosocial, interpersonal or intrapsychic situation rendering it an unsuitable time to allow a baby to come. Such matters need to be explored in an unhurried way. We need time also for a gradual integration of findings from many related fields of knowledge. These issues are discussed and three case studies presented.
