RESUMO:

The infertility is reaching an increase number of women of reproductive age. The probability of conception per female reproductive cycle, which is naturally low, approximately one fifth, is further reduced when psychosocial and physiological stressors are associated. In this context, the use of modern assisted reproductive technologies has been enable achieving pregnancy but these procedures require extensive and invasive therapeutic protocols and usually involve expensive investment, thus causing high expectations, anxiety and stress. Increase the success rate of assisted reproduction treatments is the greatest challenge in the area today. It is believed that psychophysiological factors associated with the stress response system, such as cortisol, modulate directly or indirectly the success of treatment. The present study showed that patients who were pregnant at the end of the in vitro fertilization treatment (IVF) (n = 7), which was realized at Center for Reproductive Assisted Reproduction of the Januário Cicco Maternity School of Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), presented a less anxious profile and lower salivary cortisol awakening response than patients unsuccessful in the treatment (n = 13). These patients, in turn, presented lower perception of social support and modes of coping with problems centered on religious practices and / or fanciful thoughts. Understanding how these factors correlate with the success of IVF treatment can and should facilitate the practice of effective interventions in assisted reproductive services in order to reduce stress and provide an emotional adjustment to patients, which should therefore contribute for better pregnancy rates.
