Abstract

Empirical research shows that infertility can lead to psychological and social impacts, as well as marital problems, creating a challenging situation for couples. The aim of this study is to deeply explore the concept of couple resilience in married couples experiencing infertility, as well as the factors that contribute to couple resilience. Couple resilience refers to the process by which couples engage Sin behaviors that support positive adaptation during stressful life situations. This study employs a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach involving three couples who meet the criteria of having been married for at least 12 months without having children, not delaying the arrival of children, and being between the ages of 20 and 40 years. Data were collected through interviews and observations, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that couples exhibit positive behaviors in coping with their infertility experience. The influencing factors include risk factors such as social issues, and protective factors such as a positive outlook, couple communication, spirituality, relationship flexibility, social support, maximizing daily togetherness, routines and rituals, financial management, and shared recreation. Balancing risk and protective factors ultimately enables couples to recover and face difficulties effectively.
