[Psychological approach of the infertile male].
Male infertility is usually anxiogenic, and it is often responsible for sexual dysfunctions due to the cultural indissociability of the virility and fertility concepts on the one hand, and to the timing of sexual intercourse in the ovulation period on the other hand. The intrusion of medicine in the life of the infertile couple frequently amplifies the existing psychological problems and discloses other problems by questioning the representation systems of identity, procreation and filiation.
