A sperm test sperm test (semen analysis) of the male partner.
•A blood test to check that ovulation occurs in the female partner. This measures the hormone progesterone which is high just after ovulation. The blood sample is taken on the 21st day of a regular 28-day cycle (counting day one as the first day of bleeding).
•They may also suggest some other tests, depending on any other symptoms that you may have. For example, whether the female partner has regular periods or not, etc.

Couples are generally advised to seek medical attention if they are unable to achieve pregnancy after a year of unprotected intercourse. The doctors will conduct a physical examination of both individuals to determine their general state of health and to evaluate physical disorders that may be causing infertility. Usually both individuals are interviewed about their sexual habits in order to determine whether intercourse is taking place properly for conception.

If no cause can be determined at this point, more specific tests may be recommended.

Hi there Imose,

have you been to a doctor yet?

Imose1991:
My husband and I have be trying to have a baby for three years.
We have been trying everything.
I have spoken to my family and they are getting worried.
I am scared that I cannot get pregnant and am infertile.

What can I do?
Should we go to a clinic?
Please help me.

While it's good that you mention this, sometimes an holistic approach is required with additional medical intervention needed to help couples who are struggling to conceive. I fully support healthy living and the use of the correct supplements but the best part of my experience with couples who are undergoing fertility treatment is seeing the look on their faces when they get the news that they are expecting a newcomer to their family and that the process has been successful!

Hi @munarule I can fully understand your feelings of depression and frustration. Have you seen a doctor in this regard yet?

When it comes to the issue of conception, it is common-place in our modern society for couples to struggle at times; often the idea that a woman should bear her husband a son is cause for continued trying and in the case of failing to do so, may result in the dissolution of their marriage - however, it need not be so.

I have worked with specialists in the field who have made tremendous strides medically in assisting couples who are a) struggling to conceive b) would like to be able to influence the gender selection of their unborn child to a greater degree all with excellent success. Should this be something you struggle with, do get in touch - I would love to be able to help you and point you in the direction of experts who can assist.

Truly inspiring! And a testament to the fact that infertility is not a condition to be suffered in silence, without hope. The correct and consistent, medical interventions (as well as a positive mindset such as the one you've shown) can bring about the desired results. As someone with experience in this field, it is always hugely pleasing to me to play a role in success stories such as your own as nothing is better for me than being able to point couples struggling with infertility issues in the right direction and watching their dreams come true.

Sterility does not necessarily have to be an automatic sentence to hinder conception. With experience in the medical field, in particular with regards to infertility in both men and women, I can assist in pointing you in the right direction. Get in touch privately.

Amen to the prayers! There IS Hope. There is always hope for those who have endured the heartache of difficulty with trying to conceive. As someone with medical experience in the field, get in touch privately and I will be able to make recommendations from a health point of view.

There are definite ways to resolve on this sensitive and emotionally-challenging issue. As someone with experience in the field, get in touch privately and I will be able to make recommendations.

Irrespective of whether it is culturally acceptable for him to do so or not (and really, the problem of infertility may lie with the man or the woman), but it is needless for them to have to suffer in silence or face the dissolution of their marriage or for a man to take another wife when there is medical help available through the miracle of modern science that can benefit the situation. As someone with experience in the field, I am available to discuss alternatives with any interested parties discreetly.

It's not necessary for spouses to separate over difficulties with child-bearing or infertility issues these days. There are experts in the field outside of just the family doctor, who can assist. I have experience in the medical field and can provide more information that may help - contact me privately and let's discuss.

I am sorry to hear that you have battling this for more than 3 years, the emotional rollercoaster must have put great strain on you.

The first thing you need to do is to get to a specialist. There are clinics that specialise in helping couples like you fall pregnant through the use of alternative methods. Are you open to trying some of these?
