Fertility counseling sessions can vary, depending upon the type of counselor you are seeing and the type of therapy you have signed on for.

Therapy may be one-on-one or it may involve both you and your partner. During your fertility counseling, you and your counselor will talk openly about the feelings that you have been having about your treatment.

You might discuss:

• relationship issues
• problems with friends, family, or coworkers
• financial concerns
• ways to reduce stress or depression
• treatment options, including sperm or egg donation
• selection of doctors and therapies
• pregnancy loss or failed treatment cycles
