title: [Psychological assistance for men with failures of procreation: look out for the secret wound!].
abstract: When one thinks of the failures of ART one naturally thinks of the suffering that they generate; but behind this pain, there is the suffering of infertility and, behind this latter, other distress we showed at the time of a recent research that they could play a part in infertility itself. The psychotherapy will help assume the failures, so that the traumatisms do not come to solidify in an impossible mourning, covering non elaborate former grieves. A sublimation of the desire of reproduction can make it possible for the unfertile man to peacefully consider other forms of paternity. For it to be possible, it is necessary that the subject should not be in the refusal of the psychic effraction, which the announcement of its infertility produces. When it is the case, to put on the couple on psychological assistance may help to restore a share of the narcissistic wounds; more particularly the one related to the suffering of the couple that often comes to be added to the wound of infertility.
