Resumo
Infertility is recognized as a disease of several causes by
the World Health Organization. Assisted reproduction has
a historic of progress since the development of biotechnol-
ogy. Women who need this treatment are under stress and
emotional tension. Since the 1980 ́s, professionals have
been worried with psychological aspects of the patient that
undergoes the Assisted Reproduction treatment. Studies
about music therapy show positive results in diminish-
ing/reducing patients’ emotional stress in many special-
ties. However, there were not studies showing scientific
results of this therapeutic approach. There were, though,
works in correlated areas, such as Gynecology and Obstet-
rics. Therefore, a literature review was conducted in the
following data bases: PubMed, Lilacs, Medline and Scie-
lo in studies published between 2004 and January 2014.
The descriptors/key words used were music therapy and
stress; music therapy and infertility; music therapy and
assisted reproduction; music therapy and gynecology and
obstetrics. The therms were searched both in Portuguese
and English. Therefore, this study aims to analyze what is
discussed in literature about music therapy and stress in
the context of health. The study will be a base for further
research in the post-graduation program about the use of
music therapy on emotional stress experienced by wom-
en during assisted reproduction. Articles about correlat-
ed themes, such as gynecology and obstetrics, were also
considered, trying to relate them to assisted reproduction.
