Many women coping withinfertility count on relatives

or close friends forencouragement and

assistance. But when itcomes to support, women

may not be receiving enough or even the right kind according to a new study.

The researchers suggest thathusbands become a moreactive participant in theirwives' infertility treatmentsby attending appointments,advocating for their spouse,and helping them explore

alternatives to pregnancy orother treatment options.
