Q: unwilling husband

My husband could care less if we have a baby or not. we have been having unprotected sex for over a year and nothing, so I had a complete work up done and nothing wrong there. So I asked him to go give a semen sample and he said NO. He said " if we can't have kids then it wasn't meant to be". I don't know if I can go my whole life with no kids. I cry everytime I see a preganat person now because who know if I will ever get the opportunity. I never thought at 26 I would ever have trouble having a baby.

Dear Agwenz,

probably you`ll have to explain your husband the fact that men infertility could be treated and could be caused by various reasons that are not shameful at all. May be he is afraid of the result of the semen sample but he`ll have to know that you won`t blame him but will be besides him whatever the result shows. Do not argue but don`t stop insisting. Also tell him that there`s a great possibility he doesn`t have any problem too, or has a small problem that has to be diagnosticated. I think men are a little bit more scared than us when it comes to doctor but we`re the ones that have to convince them so do not give up. Wishing you the best of luck!
