I'm getting depressed and stressed about not getting pregnant how bad does stress effect it ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A lot: Research fertility studies have shown that excessive stress and worry can inhibit ovulation preventing conception. Stress reduction techniques can help such as meditation and exercise. Many fertility patients undergo many procedures without success, and when instructed to suspend the workup or IUI, and go on vacation, spontaneously get pregnant for that reason.
