Dealing with stress

M

Hello,

It is my first time doing <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> and I find it very hard to deal with the stress waiting for our treatment (not started yet). We have had a lot of tests and it seems that we have male factor issue. The doctor suspects it is genetic and we are waiting karyotyping and Y microdeletions tests which seem to take forever. I am trying to stay on top of it but horrible thoughts keep creeping up if we will ever have children and if they will be healthy 😪 When I think of this, I have no appetite, cannot sleep or focus. Any advice from people who have gone through similar problems? How do you cope?
