“…Human responses toward infertility, such as comfort, coping, emancipated decision‐making, health management, human dignity, and power have stood out with repetitive sightings in all three main themes. Those corroborated existing evidence that addressed comfort and discomfort (Schoener & Krysa, ) and coping strategies (Ismail & Moussa, ) in infertile patients. Also, the emergence of dignity in this health context is an interesting aspect as it may claim the delivery of a respectful approach in fertility care (Arya & Dibb, ; Batool & de Visser, ; Bell, ; Benasutti, ; Cipolletta & Faccio, ; Ferland & Caron, ; Fernández‐Sola, Martínez‐Caba, Hernández‐Padilla, Carmona‐Samper, & Granero‐Molina, ; Mahon & Cotter, ; Olafsdottir, Wikland, & Möller, ).…”

OBJECTIVE To systematically retrieve, critique, and synthesize patients’ human responses about living with infertility and identify possible related nursing diagnoses according to NANDA‐I. METHODS Systematic review of qualitative nursing studies. FINDINGS A total of 39 papers were included, 49 human responses, and 77 potential infertility‐related nursing diagnoses were identified across three themes. Main foci matching nursing diagnosis were related to spiritual well‐being, spiritual distress, and resilience. CONCLUSIONS Patients respond to infertility in a variety of ways and this raises the need for a more effective, holistic, and accurate nursing diagnosis. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE The accuracy of the nursing diagnosis is critical in raising the quality of the nursing process and in meeting infertile patients’ circumstances and care expectations.

“…The pain and loss associated with infertility notably lead to psychological consequences, which can influence every aspect of an infertile woman's life, including her behaviour, marriage and social relations, economic and cultural consequences (Ismail & Moussa, 2017;Lindsey & Driskill, 2013). Naturally, women strongly refer to infertility as a life crisis and the most stressful experience in their lives (Cheng, Stevenson, Yang, & Liou, 2018;Freeman, Boxer, Rickels, Tureck, & Mastroianni, 1985;Ismail & Moussa, 2017). Therefore, infertility is an unanticipated life-course disruption to women (Ulrich & Weatherall, 2000) as it can lead to tremendous societal repercussions other than personal suffering.…”

Purpose: This study aims to explore and describe the phenomenon of women with infertility and to enhance understanding on how infertility affects their lives and the specific social consequence they encountered. Method: A qualitative phenomenological design was adopted in this study. A total of 13 women who are infertile participated in the study. A snowball sampling method was adopted. Data were analysed through thematic analysis. Results: Four themes emerged in the study, including (i) non-escapable cultural burden in Chinese family; (ii) psychological distress: isolation caused by envy; (iii) disappointment towards reproductive health services; and (iv) self-compassion and religion as coping strategies. Conclusions: The causes of infertility are highly complex. Apart from medical conditions, many social conditions would also probably trigger the difficulty of conceiving. Health care professional should also focus on the social and psychological aspects of women of infertility.

Özİnfertilite bireylerde/çiftlerde biyolojik, psikolojik, sosyo-kültürel, ekonomik ve etik açıdan birçok probleme sebep olmaktadır. Bir kriz durumu olan infertilite, sosyal izolasyona, damgalanmaya, evlilik ilişkilerinde bozulmaya, psikolojik sorunlara ve strese sebep olur. Strese sebep olan durum karşısında bazı baş etme yöntemlerinin kullanılması kabul görmüş bir tutumdur. Bu sebeple infertilite stresiyle baş etmede etkili baş etme yöntemlerinin kullanılması önemlidir. Bu sistematik derlemede infertilite stresi ile baş etmede kullanılan bireysel baş etme yöntemlerini içeren çalışmaların sonuçlarını incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Sistematik derlemeye dâhil etme kriterleri; infertilite stresiyle bireysel baş etme yöntemlerini inceleyen çalışma olması, araştırma makalesi [nicel/nitel] olması, yayın dilinin İngilizce olması, son beş yılda yayınlanan araştırma olması, tam metnine ulaşılabilen ve derleme olmayan çalışma olmasıdır. Derlemeye dâhil etme kriterlerini sağlayan on altı çalışmanın dördü tanımlayıcı, sekizi kesitsel tanımlayıcı, biri ilişki arayıcı, biri nitel, biri ilişki arayıcı ve nitel, biri tanımlayıcı ve derinlemesine görüşme tasarım tipindedir. Çalışmalar incelendiğinde; infertil bireylerin stres ile başa çıkmada çeşitli baş etme yöntemlerini kullandıkları belirlenmiştir. Din ve maneviyata yönelme, sosyal izolasyon, durumu yok sayma ve dikkati başka yöne çekme girişimlerinin en fazla kullanılan yöntemler olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Sağlık bakım vericileri infertil bireyleri/çiftleri bütünsel bir yaklaşımla değerlendirmeli ve infertilite stresiyle baş etmelerine yardımcı olacak bir yaklaşımda olmalıdır.
