Question - (1 September 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 2 September 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

my boyfriend has undescended testicles which increases the risk of infertility. This really upsets me and although he's been too embarrased about it in the past, I have got him to see a specialist where he

should hopefully take a sperm count.

The thing is that I don't believe that he has a sperm count and I do believe he is infertile, which obviously upsets me alot as we were planning on starting a family, he is only 21 and I know how much he wants this kid.

I love him and I don't want to leave him because he may be infertile but I don't want to accept that I may not be able to have kids naturally with him, which is all both of us have ever wanted :(

I don't know whether to be positive about it all or whether to be negative because he is extremelty touchy about the situation and feels like he's letting me down.

I have the urge to be a mother and am craving for his child which I don't think I can conceive :(

A female reader, SugarCookie United States +, writes (2 September 2008):

You have to stay positive. Its not his fault. Its not like he is telling you no he was born with a birth defect. There are other ways of having a baby that you can talk about.

I know that this is harsh but if you really loved this guy you wouldn't consider leaving him over it you would find a solution to the problem. How would you feel if he left you because you were infertile. Why not talk about donnor sperm?
