Myth: “I Don’t Need To Get Checked—My Boys Are Just Fine.”

Busted!: According to RESOLVE, 30% of infertility is due to male factor.   Maybe it’s all the preservatives in food, the chemicals in the air, the consequence of putting off child bearing beyond the years that nature designed for conception to be easiest to accomplish—or maybe a combination of all of the above.

Not “checking your boys” after one year of trying to have a baby on your own is like ignoring the “check engine” light when it first goes on. It could be nothing, but if you let it go, it could cost you far more in the long run that if you just take care of it soon after that warning signal first appears.

A plastic cup, a brown paper bag and about fifteen minutes of your time is all you’ll need to diagnose your contribution to that trouble code description.
