This picture says it all – men are shut out of infertility investigations.

Having a baby is women’s business? Actually it’s a man’s business too. It takes two to make a baby. But  when it comes to finding out why couples are experiencing fertility problems  the man is still not often properly investigated e.g. having a physical examination, having an array of  hormonal and other blood tests to assess his fertililty . The focus is on the woman’s fertility and the man is effectively ignored  – and the woman may have invasive treatments to overcome what may possibly be due to male fertility problems – the result can be  continuing couple infertility.
