Can we skip male infertility tests if my husband objects?

We can’t make your husband do a test he doesn’t want to but it’s a bad idea to ‘skip’ testing for him. In couples who aren’t getting pregnant after trying for a year or longer, almost half the time there is a sperm issue (40-50% of couples). It could be the only problem or occur along with problems on the woman’s side. A Semen Analysis is a good test to do early on. A Semen Analysis can be collected at home if you live less than an hour away. It is possible to start with your tests and do the Semen Analysis later if your husband is unwilling to be tested early on we can discuss the test with your husband at the first visit or at the second meeting, when we go through fertility testing results and make a treatment plan.
