If the pregnancy is successful, the couple may feel happy and happy, and deepen their emotional ties with each other; However, if they fail, they may fall into depression and despair, leading to depression and even marital crisis. Therefore, couples need to support, understand and care each other in the process of IVF, and face challenges together.
2、 Economic impact
The implementation of IVF technology needs a lot of money. In order to realize the dream of procreation, couples may have to bear high medical costs, drug costs and subsequent support costs. In the process of IVF, many attempts may be required, and the increase of costs will bring some pressure to the couple's economic situation.
Economic pressure may lead to conflicts and disputes in the relationship between husband and wife. The economic expenditure of both parties may be unbalanced, or they may be under the heavy pressure of family and social expectations, which will impact the marriage relationship. Therefore, when considering IVF, couples need to make economic planning in advance, fully communicate and jointly deal with the difficulties brought by economic pressure.
3、 Social impact
Test tube baby is a topic of great concern, which has caused extensive social discussion. If couples choose IVF technology, they may face judgments and doubts from families, relatives and friends, and public opinion. This kind of social pressure will affect the relationship between husband and wife, increasing the burden between husband and wife.
The social impact also involves legal and moral issues. Different countries and regions have different laws and regulations on IVF technology, and some even prohibit or restrict the implementation of IVF technology. In this case, the couple may need to face norms and restrictions, which will have a certain impact on the marital relationship.
4、 Affective impact
The emotional impact of IVF on husband wife relationship is mainly reflected in two aspects. First of all, couples need to cooperate closely and face challenges together in the process of IVF. In this process, their ability to interact and cooperate will be tempered and improved, and their emotional ties will be enhanced.
Secondly, the birth of IVF may cause more attention and expectation in couples. Couples have gone through a hard process to realize their dream of procreation.

However, this kind of high expectation also brings greater responsibility and pressure, which needs both husband and wife to take seriously and face.

Couples need to fully consider these impacts when choosing IVF technology, and fully communicate and understand with each other.
