Emotional, psychological and physical impacts of infertility treatments.

Description 
Individuals undergoing infertility treatment may experience a range of physical and psychological burdens, including emotional distress, relationship strain and social stigma, which may affect treatment experiences and outcomes. Despite this, access to appropriate psychological support/ resources remains limited. This project focuses on understanding the lived experiences and support needs of people undergoing or having undergone fertility treatment, with the aim of informing more person-centred and equitable approaches to care.
