Infertility is one of the components of sexual and reproductive health and rights, but is not as widely addressed as pregnancy, birth, and contraception. Infertility is a global problem, and it is estimated that around 186 million individuals are affected worldwide. Infertility and infertility treatment impact on women's overall wellbeing including their mental, emotional, sexual and spiritual health. Anxiety and depression is prevalent in these women. This study sought to explore the experiences of women going through infertility and IVF in a global context. This study is a metasynthesis with a meta-ethnographic analysis design based on 19 qualitative research studies, including 503 women, focusing on women's experiences of infertility and IVF treatments. Three main themes were identified; the personal reproductive trauma, the impact of and on relationships, and being failed by the healthcare system and society. The personal trauma and experiences included stress, grief, inability to focus, chock, insomnia, anxiety, withdrawing from others, sense of hopelessness and guilt and shame. The infertility and IVF journey also either caused conflicts in relationships or helped the couples to grow stronger. At the same time, relationships with friends and family were strained due to isolation and feeling stigmatized, and not understood. Finally, the healthcare system and providers lacked adequate support, holistic and caring care, and the women felt dehumanized and failed by the healthcare system. It is therefore critical that the healthcare system provide the time, information and support needed to deal with infertility and IVF to maintain quality of life and wellbeing.
