First seen Nov 17, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 23 times

Summary

This study looks at how the process of diagnosing infertility affects the sex lives of couples. Researchers will follow 80 heterosexual couples at a French hospital, asking them to fill out questionnaires about their sexual function, satisfaction, and body image. The goal is to understand if the stress of testing and learning the cause of infertility can lead to sexual problems, or if sexual issues might even be a hidden cause of infertility.
