It is known that stress can result in a diminished quality of life and hinder the body’s ability to function normally and efficiently. Women who have difficulty conceiving suffer as much anxiety and depression as women with heart disease and cancer. Worry and anxiety can hinder fertility – alleviating stress can help increase the chances of conceiving. We’re here to help with the mental health struggles that so frequently exist with conception and infertility.
