The Influence of Aged Infertility on Couple Relationship
Elderly infertility refers to the condition that the couple whose wife is over 35 years old and the husband is over 40 years old cannot conceive or give birth smoothly for a long time. This problem not only has an impact on the relationship between husband and wife, but also has a lot of impact on family life.
Increased psychological pressure
For couples who want to have children, the inability to conceive or have children will bring them great psychological pressure. Aged infertile couples may feel remorse, anxiety, depression and disappointment. Women often feel the urgency of time, doubt their reproductive ability, and increase their anxiety about the role of future mothers. These negative emotions may affect the relationship between husband and wife, resulting in poor communication and frequent quarrels.
In addition, the treatment process of infertility will also bring mental pressure to couples. After countless attempts, they may still fail, which further aggravates the anxiety and depression of couples. Such pressure can easily lead to arguments and emotional instability between couples.
However, both husband and wife should support each other and face this problem together. Seeking psychological counseling or marital relationship counseling can help them reduce stress and enhance mutual trust and understanding.
Impact of social pressure
In Chinese culture, having children is regarded as the husband and wife's responsibility and the family's inheritance. However, due to the delay of childbearing age and the increase of life pressure, more and more couples are facing the problem of infertility.
The attitude of society towards infertile couples is often incomprehensible, derisive or even condemnatory. Couples may face pressure and discrimination from relatives, friends or society. This kind of pressure and discrimination may aggravate the psychological burden of both husband and wife, leading to tension and estrangement between husband and wife.
Faced with such social pressure, couples need to stick to their own choices and trust each other. They should try to be frank with each other, face together and support each other on this issue.
Increased economic burden
The treatment of infertility is a long-term and complex process, which often requires huge financial resources. Elderly infertile couples may need a series of examinations, drug treatment, assisted reproductive technology and even surgery. These are expensive medical expenses.
Under the pressure of economic burden, couples may need to face the possibility of changing their lifestyle, cutting other expenses and seeking external assistance. This may lead to instability and disharmony in the relationship between husband and wife.
Facing the increasing economic burden, the husband and wife should maintain a positive attitude, develop a reasonable financial plan, and seek the help and support of relevant medical institutions.
Impact of family relationships
The existence of infertility may have a lasting impact on the family relationship between husband and wife. Family members, especially parents, may intervene and criticize the couple's fertility problems. This kind of family pressure may lead to the breakdown and alienation of family relations.
However, when couples face the problem of infertility, family support and understanding are very important. Both husband and wife should communicate with their families to explain their choices and difficulties. With the support and help of family members, the relationship between husband and wife can be more stable and the family life can be more harmonious.
summary
The old age infertility has had many effects on the relationship between husband and wife and family life. The aggravation of psychological pressure, the impact of social pressure, the increase of economic burden and the impact of family relations are common problems. Couples need to support and understand each other and seek professional help to deal with this problem. The most important thing is to maintain a positive attitude and confidence in the future, walk through difficulties together, and create a happy family.
