A member asked:

We got married for 4 years.we don't have children. we avoid pregnancy by condom. will this avoidance affect my wife's fertility in our future?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely to matter: Use of a barrier method (condom or diaphragm) has no impact on a woman's future fertility.
