Description
Infertility, pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period can bring significant physical, emotional, sexual, and relational changes for individuals and couples. These experiences may affect sexual desire, functioning, communication, intimacy, and relationship satisfaction.

Participants will explore sexual-functioning concerns that may interfere with conception when no medical cause of infertility has been identified, common myths and concerns related to sexual activity during pregnancy, and the physical and relational adjustments that may affect postpartum sexuality.
Clinical examples will be used to illustrate common presentations and considerations for supporting individuals and couples throughout these reproductive life stages.
