“Of all the hardships a person had to face, none was more punishing than the simple act of waiting.”  But When it comes to fertility, it turns out to be a nightmare.

Infertility impacts many parts of life.... The longer it takes to conceive, the more strain on mental health, finances, and relationships - especially the relationship between partners.

But Why? Isn't Trying Supposed to be the 'Fun' part of having a baby? Why does trying impact intimacy?

1. Trying starts to feel like a job - planned, calculated, stressful. When you do sex for pregnancy, you focus on technical things. Size of follicles, have it grown, will it rupture today, should I do sex today or tomorrow......in all this khichadi of waiting your emotions become zero. And you start following guidelines to do Emotionless workups. Now you don't feel about it...so many times females don't have proper lubrication and males don't have proper erection.

2. Men report feeling like a sperm production tool.

3. Women report feeling responsible for tracking cycles, timing, taking charge of the process.

Ovulation is a crucial part of the fertility process, as it is the time when an egg is released from the ovary and is available for fertilization by sperm. The wait for ovulation can be difficult, because it can vary from woman to woman and from cycle to cycle.

In addition, even when ovulation does occur, there is no guarantee that conception will happen.

Factors such as the emotional status of both partners, quality of the sperm, the timing of intercourse and the health of the reproductive organs can all play major role in conception.  Doing sex technically is not good for conception. But this waiting irritates you and you start doing all this emotionlessly.

There are several things that couples can do to improve their chances of conception during this waiting period. These include:

• Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise.
• Reducing stress through relaxation techniques such as meditation or yoga.
• Avoiding alcohol, smoking, and recreational drugs.
• Seeking medical advice if conception has not occurred after several months of trying.
• Don't Ignore the Issue of loosing intimacy!

Infertility is a marathon, not a sprint! So ignoring the issue, avoiding the feelings in hope that once you have your baby, everything will be 'fine' is not a good plan.

Sexuality and Pregnancy:

Sexual problems and dysfunctions during pregnancy are often led by the anxiety of hurting the fetus. Males are also afraid of hurting a female and femals are afraid of insufficient satisfaction of a male partner. Just 12-14% of couples deny sexual problems after the childbirth. The main postpartum risk factor for dyspareunia is the extent of a birth injury. Breastfeeding is linked to a low coital activity, low sexual desires and low sexual satisfaction of females and their partners. Breastfeeding females start with a sexual life later; more often suffer from dyspareunia and indicate a lower satisfaction with the sexual intercourse. Further, episiotomy is associated with a higher prevalence of a postpartum dyspareunia. Low interest of antenatal and postnatal care providers in the issues of sexuality is documented. Lack of relevant information is the common reason for avoiding this topic.

Males also start masturbating during pregnancy and after delivery. Their anxiety performance increases and affects their performance in bed. Even their partner is either not interested or so busy with babies that they have to fulfill their needs with their own hands. Gradually if both of them don't start working on it again, problems get worse day by day. After some months and years they need to go for treatment of ED or PE with dissatisfaction of partner.
