I Am Sterile But About To Be A Father by Romangalactic(m): 4:30pm On Feb 05, 2020
I'll try to keep my predicament short. I registered a new account for this purpose but I'm sure many of you will understand that sterility is not something to be announced which is exactly how I got myself in this situation. I am 35 and engaged to a beautiful woman who completes me in every way. As much as it hurts me to say this, I have not been totally honest with her about everything.
Just yesterday while we were home together, she told me that she is pregnant . I asked her how sure she is, she said she had done the pee test and that she knows how she is feeling. The issue here is that I am sterile but I have not told her this before so it is impossible that I am responsible.

Please before anyone tells me I deserve this for not opening up to her, I have been undergoing treatment secretly and they say I will be able to father children when it's done so of course, I am hopeful and have not bothered to inform her about any of this. I can't stand losing her for any reason. My issue right now is that I asked my endocrinologist this morning if it's possible that the treatment is already working and he said we have not gone far enough to see any results yet. This means I am definitely not the father of the child she is carrying.

Only one other person in this world knows about my health challenge and that is my cousin. I told him and he told me to break up with my fiancée, someone I have already done introduction with and families are involved. I told him I cannot and that he must take the secret to the grave, he thinks I am making the biggest mistake of my life.
Well I told him my plan is to accept the pregnancy and continue to make her think I don't know she cheated on me. I am doing this with the hope that after we get married, my treatment will be completed and everything will be back to normal. But at the same time, I still can't shake the feeling that I am about to marry someone who cheated and is passing off another man's child as mine, I feel cheated and it hurts.

Can anyone else please tell me what to do about this situation I have found myself? Please I just need to hear from other people besides my cousin. Another thing, he has never really liked my fiancée so I feel that also may be his motivation.
I need neutral opinions please

Whatever your reasons are for not telling her holds no water. You established the relationship on a lie and deceit and it is somewhat hilarious that you are not sure whether or not you are getting the same treatment right now.

While I don't want to authoritatively assert that she cheated, I feel your best chance right now is to wait after nine months and run a DNA test on the child, albeit secretly (for your sake and hers).

On a lighter note, you probably should get sewing threads of different colours, say five, tie them simultaneously around a long broom or a long nail. Rub it against the dirt or sand to make it look dirty a bit and cook up a story about some practice in your parent's lineage. Ask her to confirm you own the pregnancy over the jargon you made, but not without warning her of the grave consequences. Your truth will come out. grin

Last, last, you both are truly meant for each other.

There are two things involved ...

Your girl cheated


Or


You’re going to be a father


You can either confront her or take a gamble that you have actually fathered a child.

Are you a betting man?

I think you guys are now even, and it is best you accost her with what you know to be the truth. No need getting married on a faulty foundation.

The truth is that you may want to accept the child so the society won't know your predicament, but what happens when you watch them sleeping, when she suckles the baby, what will go through your mind?
Come out plain and both of you should decide where to go from there.

Before you Blame infidelity on the girl, try and check yourself again in another lab or hospital, let them analyse your semen again... Unless if you know your stuff isn't fully operational..

I am fully operational but sterile. I will have to find a way to make the trip and see my endocrinologist so he can take samples, my next consultation was not due for another four months but I'm really praying the child is mine.

It's not everytime the truth sets people free. I thought about this as well but there too may things at play.
I have always felt the treatment may not have positive results fast enough and will take many trials, so accepting responsibility for this child is a good way to save us the embarrassment of our families wondering why we have not had a child after marriage and it also ensures she won't be trying to get pregnant for the next three to four years, which gives me more time to sort myself out.

I know this is selfish of me,. thanks a lot for your suggestions.

The child could still be yours, as nothing is impossible before God... Man proposes, God disposes..... Fingers crossed.... Let the baby be born first, then you can go for a DNA test..... But nothing gives peace like the TRUTH!

Kai I feel for you ooh BUT you really need to come out clean. If she stays, she stays. if she decides to leave, it will hurt but you would have saved yourself a lot of troubles.

Do this and every other thing you are battling to find out will fall in place.

My prayers are with you.

I’m curious. How did you find out you were sterile? Functional men don’t randomly check for sperm activity. Since you are not married, what could have prompted you to check?

He is a scriptwriter, he is gathering your opinions on a story he intends selling to Emem Isong.

OP, look into this question and add to what you already wrote.

He should also get his medical facts right. There is no such long term treatment for male stertility.

Bro, there is no assurance that she will not cheat on you again and again.

A girl that cheats during relationship had a tendency to cheat in marriage

I had an STinfection I never knew about until I began noticing white fluid forming around the tip of my privates, it looked like semen so at first I thought maybe while i was asleep I was aroused but when I began experiencing burning sensations while peeing, i just had to get myself checked out. They found out it was a urinary tract infection left untreated for too long that reached my prostate

I could give more details but I'm afraid i don't want to go too much into all of it if you don't mind.

That you're male and this is coming from you is a little overwhelming. Are you a doctor and did you notice that the person treating me is an endocrinologist? What do you think these people do?

My brother this Lie and cheat journey you call union will end in tears soonest. You can endure one child but can you endure 4-5 kids from this same woman knowing well that your engine is not grinding.
Break up and start this process again or move on with break and quench union.

Oga, do you realize that if you had wedded her without disclosing your sterility, you’d have simply wasted your money, because such a marriage is automatically null and void? undecided
