Déni de grossesse et don d'ovocytes

We will put here the concept of denial of pregnancy in the particular case of women conceiving a child by medically-assisted procreation with oocyte donation. From two clinics encountered in our practice, we will consider how the context of medically-assisted procreation with oocyte donation can be experienced as invasive with the consequence of a complex psychic pregnancy that could promote a denial of pregnancy. On the basis of this observation, we will validate the need for special psychological support, in order to support psychic gestation work, for women conceiving a child by medically-assisted procreation with oocyte donation.
