In the literature infertility is defined as the absence of conception after 12 months of sexual activity without contraceptive use. Its prevalence in the population varies among different countries, from a minimum of 5% to a maximum of 30% of all couples. Considering the physical and psychic suffering of women who undergo reproduction treatments, the main aim of this study was to investigate the unconscious aspects of the singular desire for maternity and the difficulty in coping with the impossibility of creating a child. There was a subversion of the body, where "Another" body appears in enigmatic form in their statements. It is here that the desire is installed. Individual interviews were carried out, from which the manifest unconscious aspects contained within the statements of these women were studied and analyzed from a biopsychosocial perspective, attributing greater relevance to the contributions of psychoanalysis.
