The physical and psychological burdens of obtaining the diagnosis and the treatment of unintended childlessness may affect the quality of life of males from couples with an unfulfilled child wish ( Bechoua et al, 2016 ; Gameiro et al, 2012 ; Hanna & Gough, 2015; Holter et al, 2007 ; Kumbak et al, 2010 ; Martins et al, 2016 ; Pook & Krause, 2005 ; Schmidt et al, 2012 ; Warchol-Biedermann, 2019 ; Wischmann et al, 2009 ; Wischmann & Thorn, 2013 ).
