Managing treatment failure: a patient's view.
This article explores how patients may deal with and manage treatment failure and gives suggestions to infertility clinics on how they might assist patients when their treatment fails. It describes the author's own experience of infertility treatment failure and how she and her partner coped. The article identifies possible reasons why a patient might contact CHILD, the national infertility support network, and also looks at the benefits for patients of being in contact with a support group.
