• Registration Number: NCT04456010
• Lead Sponsor: University Hospital, Montpellier

Brief Summary

Non-urgent medical care, such as fertility treatments, has been massively postponed during the past weeks due to the COVID19 pandemic. The lockdown and the closure of IVF centers might cause anxiety and depression among infertile couples, who are already exposed to the distressing experience of infertility and for whom the wait for a baby already appears unending. Few data are available regarding the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on pregnant women and foetus, or on fertility.

This study aims to assess the views of infertile couple regarding the potential risks of COVID during their fertility treatment and their personal experience of the COVID pandemic and their expectation for further treatment .
