Abstract

This paper discusses about the relationship between stress and the woman reproductive function, particularly considering the attention biopsychosocial model. Accordingly, it is justified the need of valorizing woman psychological aspects, especially by the possibility of therapeutic intervention and minimization of negative additional factors linked to conception, such as stress and anxiety.

Keywords: stress; reproduction; biopshychossocial
