Abstract :In couples diagnosed with infertility and experiencing involuntary childlessness, women experience more stigma. Men\'s fertility is often linked to the quality of their sperm, while women\'s fertility is linked to many components such as reproductive organs, hormones, and psychosocial environment; causes women to be stigmatized more than men. The stigma of not giving birth and the associated social pressures negatively affect all aspects of women\'s lives and well-being. Stigmatization for the woman who could not have a child even if she wanted to; it brings with it many problems such as exclusion, social isolation, violence, abandonment, polygamy, psychological problems and treatment refusal. The purpose of this review; it aims to be a professional guide to the health of women with infertility problems by providing information about the permanence of women, the factors that cause them to be permanent, the experiences and solution suggestions.Keywords : Çocuksuzluk, Damgalanma, İnfertilite, Kadın
