Abstract: Introduction/contextualization: Polycystic ovaries, early ovarian failure, and uterine complications. These are some of the causes responsible for triggering infertility in women's health. This disorder leads to the development of emotional problems, as it is common for women to experience symptoms of anxiety and depression when dealing with this condition. Objective(s): To raise awareness about the possibilities of curing the causes of female infertility; To disseminate knowledge related to women's infertility and how it affects their health; To bring scientific information about clinical cases to the public. Method: Bibliographic review of articles related to the topic, published online between 2014 and 2021. Development/results: The study elucidated the negative impact related to the social stigma that the difficulty of conceiving a child brings to women's psychological health. Furthermore, the work exposed that the lack of support and assistance from the Brazilian public health system hinders the treatment of female infertility. Finally, the study emphasized that fostering new research on the topic could provide new methods for dealing with infertile women. Conclusion/final considerations: It is concluded that female infertility is intrinsically linked to the development of physical and mental disorders in women's health because affected women suffer due to this condition. The solution to this situation may be the awareness of public agencies such as SUS and the Ministry of Women in order to mitigate the negative impacts that this disease causes.
