Zusammenfassung

Infertility may lead to a �life crisis� for infertile individuals and their partners, and the psychological consequences can have a negative impact on the relationship. In such cases, professional intervention should focus on helping the couple to cope with the diagnosis and with the problems arising in their relationship. The goal of this paper is to discuss the main issues couples may face as a consequence of infertility and to describe the psychologist�s treatment protocol for couples with relationship issues during the phases of diagnosis and treatment with assisted reproduction techniques. Finally, we briefly discuss how the psychologist can help couples who choose other procedures, such as egg donation or adoption, or who opt to discontinue the treatment.
