Face Facts about Male Infertility

Infertility is a hurdling bump in every intended parent's path to build a family. Many couples afflicted by infertility are surprised to learn that the problem lies in the man. In 30 percent of infertility cases, a male factor is solely responsible for not conceiving. 

Don’t delay seeking an infertility specialist if you and your partner are unable to conceive after 12 months of unprotected sex.

If your wife is over 35, consult a doctor after 6 months without success.

Take the first step and get a physical exam and sperm analysis. 

Ask questions. It's significant that you and your partner understand the results and what is causing your infertility. Sometimes, a diagnosis might involve a simple lifestyle change — like improving diet and cutting out smoking and heavy drinking.
