Summary/Abstract: Autobiographical testimonies of barren women and members of their families were taken on the field research in the previously mentioned villages. Our aim is to try to establish the status of the woman in the traditional village community through the prism of the biographical method, or rather through their personal experiences, while especially keeping in mind the community's attitude about the woman as a basic factor in the reproduction of the community.
