You hardly see poor couples praying, fasting, taking fertility drugs, going for IVF and all that, they pop babies with ease. Why is it that most cases of inability to conceive is peculiar with the rich? Is it nature's way of compensating the poor lipsrsealed

Aside from divine will,in my own opinion,I think diet cannot be excluded. Infact the kind of drugs the rich folks use are counter productive,their life styles aswell can also contribute. Not that the indigents too cannot in one way or another be gullible to infertility, due to exposure, from hard chemicals for example in work places like petroleum pipeline installations and maintenance, mining etc,but chances are,that they are more rugged than the rich folks.

If that be the case...... Then let the wealthy ones marry the poor ones.
The equation will just be perfectly balanced! Since we all want wealth and children.

I don't think you are right.
Re: Why Are Cases Of Infertility Common With Wealthy Families? by eyinjuege: 8:49am On Oct 17, 2015
I don't think cases of infertility are commoner in the rich, rather infertile poor couples just take it as their fate and continue believing only God for their miracles. They can't afford IVF, so its only middle class and the rich you find with stories of IVF,the procedure and the ups and downs they faced.
You don't find poor people talking of IVF cos its unaffordable and unattainable for now in their world. You don't even see their stories cos oftentimes the various partners just leave themselves and go find other people they think they can procreate with easily.
The rich also cry, but truly the poor cry more!

I doubt infertility is peculiar to the rich.You probably just hear more stories about the rich because they have money and other resources to seek solutions.

sugary non organic foods perhaps.

o.p, i think its partly supernatural and partly abt the lifestyle they lead. In africa, with riches comes envy, hatred, witchcraft attacks and incantations from friends, families and neighbours.


Secondly, i think rich people drink, they take expensive drinks, eat alot of meat and sit in air conditioned offices and cars. All these weakens their bodies.


Lastly many wealthy people did things that is affecting them now. Some committed multiple abortions, some used their manhood for money rituals.

True, but poorer people don't seem to have fertility issues.

And they can't afford many of the things rich people can.

No you don't.
@op, it's simply because the affluent have more education. Studies show that, on the average, better educated people settle down later than their less educated counterparts. People tend to keep having children off until marriage and since fertility declines with age... Do the math.

Not true.

Why do you thing that in most markets the local medicine sellers make a killing from selling Fibroid medicine or drugs and herbs to cure staph or regularise your period. Walk through Oshodi market all their products are indirectly for fertility whether for men or women.

All these are targeted at the poor.
The only time people worry about fibroids and staph is because they think it affects their fertility. Same with those who patronise local massagers who want toset your womb so you can conceive. The poor visit them too.

Or you haven't heard of Oko oloyun

I think it is just part of life . That is you can't have it all. Also, lifestyle is a factor. Diet, exercise, etc.
The poor also have the patience to bear TTC cos they cannot afford the cost of alternatives such as IVF. But the truth is that's just how life is.

The poor understands the position he is in. It irks him so much that he boinks the wife with venom, which results in immediate pregnancy and eventually a child.

The rich on the other hand also understand his position. He's got business deals to attend to, awaiting contracts etc. He's got all these in mind while shagging the wife, which makes it a bad sex and almost difficult for the wife to conceive.

I hope y'all would buy this theory, it's that cheap cheesy

these are the kinds of discussions you expect a worthwhile blog to push to the front page for more contributions, rather you only see news about Genevieve and Iyanya.
this is a very serious issue ravaging many families today. the IVF business is the most lucrative medical practice now, all the IVF specialists in Abuja make billionaire in less than 3 years of opening shop.

on the OP's concern, my investigations tend to show that children who consume a lot of poultry egg in youth likely end up with fertility issues - especially males. I have a good number of cases and it's not funny
