A member asked:

My husband & i have had unprotected sex for 3 years & we're trying to conceive with no luck. we're both in our early 20's. should we see a doctor?

Yes: The definition of infertility is one year of unprotected intercourse. 50% of the causes are do to a female cause and 50% are do to a male cause. After 3 years of trying without success, you should probably consult your gyn. Hope this helps. Good luck.
