Thanks for sharing your story, and for being willing to be tested. I’ve heard of women going through painful after painful test, only to have the men tested later and be found unable to produce. It’s good to hear of the guys who are willing to go first.

I friend of mine just recently found out that he’s infertile. He and his wife just got married after being together for 12 years. He’s still in the anger stage and is not taking it too well.

Thank you for this useful information.

I used to think that it was odd that people had trouble listening until I realized that I was talking about how my kids were conceived. If they told me how their kids were conceived, I would probably feel a little strange, too.
