Book excerpt: "The purpose of this thesis project is to reframe the false narrative that exists surrounding infertility. Changing the narrative from a 'woman's problem' or 'personal failure' to a health issue that impacts both genders. Much of the current mental health research on infertility focuses on women's experiences with infertility. Yet, intertility is a health issue that affects men and women equally ... Despite men representing half of the infertility community, resources have been stagnant and research has found infertile men lack appropriate support networks and educational resources."--Abstract.
