- The study focused on the effects of infertility and Medically Assisted Reproduction (MAR) on all areas of life for both men and women, surveying 1,045 patients in France.
- Results showed that while satisfaction with medical care was high (over 80%), many patients experienced significant challenges, including disruptions in sexual life and the professional sphere.
- A notable percentage of active workers reported MAR negatively affected their job performance and necessitated dishonesty about their absences, highlighting the need for better non-medical support and workplace awareness.
