Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH - Year 2014, Vol 6, Issue 7
Abstract
Fertility is an existential necessity and assumes overwhelming importance to men and women in all times. Existence depends upon fertility of land and live stock as well upon human procreation. With time, Social habits and religion influenced human perception of fertility or infertility. Pregnancy, child birth and child rearing generally have greater physical reality for women than men, as does the monthly reminder of the absence of a pregnancy for an infertile woman. This is compounded by a cultural belief that infertility is a woman’s problem. A study of married couples found that while wives experienced infertility as cataclysmic role failure, husbands tended to see infertility as a disconcerting event but not a tragedy. Both partners tended to see infertility as a problem for wives. Therefore an exploratory study to assess the psychosocial and physical problems among infertile women in selected hospital of Ludhiana Punjab was undertaken with the objectives: to assess the psychosocial and physical problems among infertile woman and to ascertain the relationship of psychosocial and physical problems with selected demographic variables. A non-experimental, exploratory study was conducted in infertility clinics of selected hospital Ludhiana, Punjab. The study sample consisted of total 100 infertile women. Data was analyzed by inferential statistics and presented through tables and figures.
