摘要

多达六分之一的人患有不孕症,这是一种常见的诊断,与大多数慢性疾病一样,伴随着一系列身体、情感、社会和经济挑战。目前,由于各种原因,包括但不限于获取、费用、旅行时间和缺乏护理需要的知识,接受不孕症治疗的人中只有不到四分之一的人利用精神卫生服务。通过改善心理健康,不孕症患者可能会增加他们的关系满意度,应对经常伴随诊断而来的悲伤和内疚的机制,坚持治疗,甚至获得成功怀孕的机会。在本文中,我认为心理健康服务应该被纳入标准的生育护理访问,由有执照和经验丰富的心理健康专业人员带头筛选和评估患者的需求和痛苦风险,不仅实现上述心理健康咨询的好处,而且还提高他们的整体幸福感。

Mental health screening and psychological support should be the standard of care in fertility clinics.

Infertility affects up to one in six individuals, a common diagnosis that, like most chronic health conditions, comes with an array of physical, emotional, social, and economical challenges. Currently, less than a fourth of individuals undergoing care for infertility utilize mental health services for a myriad of reasons including but not limited to access, cost, travel time, and lack of knowledge of what care would entail. By improving psychological well-being, infertility patients may increase their relationship satisfaction, coping mechanisms for grief and guilt that frequently come with the diagnosis, adherence to treatment, and even chances at achieving a successful pregnancy. In this paper, I argue that mental health services should be incorporated into standard fertility care visits, spearheaded by licensed and experienced mental health professionals to screen and assess a patient's needs and risk of distress, to not only achieve the aforementioned benefits of mental health counseling, but also improve their overall well-being.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics publishes cellular, molecular, genetic, and epigenetic discoveries advancing our understanding of the biology and underlying mechanisms from gametogenesis to offspring health. Special emphasis is placed on the practice and evolution of assisted reproduction technologies (ARTs) with reference to the diagnosis and management of diseases affecting fertility. Our goal is to educate our readership in the translation of basic and clinical discoveries made from human or relevant animal models to the safe and efficacious practice of human ARTs. The scientific rigor and ethical standards embraced by the JARG editorial team ensures a broad international base of expertise guiding the marriage of contemporary clinical research paradigms with basic science discovery. JARG publishes original papers, minireviews, case reports, and opinion pieces often combined into special topic issues that will educate clinicians and scientists with interests in the mechanisms of human development that bear on the treatment of infertility and emerging innovations in human ARTs. The guiding principles of male and female reproductive health impacting pre- and post-conceptional viability and developmental potential are emphasized within the purview of human reproductive health in current and future generations of our species. The journal is published in cooperation with the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, an organization of more than 8,000 physicians, researchers, nurses, technicians and other professionals dedicated to advancing knowledge and expertise in reproductive biology.
