A member asked:

I am 34 my partner is 44 with 10 year old i can't seem to conceive, he can't do sample he gets stressed out & i need answers!! what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: The quoted average to conceive a child involves 6 mo of effort. After a year with no success, an evaluation of both by a fertility center is warranted. If he is not willing, I would suspect he is not as interested, but you might go yourself to find out your options.
