Abstract

The objective of this study was to appraise counseling intervention for infertile patients. Methods: One
hundred sixty-three couples enrolled in the Rajendra Nagar Hospital & IVF Centre, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, were asked
to participate in this study. Seventy-six couples agreed and were randomized according to a computer-generated randomnumbers table into either a routine-care control group or an intervention group. The intervention consisted of three sessions
with a counselor: one before, one during and one after the first cycle. Results: Significant improvement in the pregnancy rate
was observed in the intervention group. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that counseling increases infertile
women’s chance of becoming pregnant.
