MARRIAGE: What If Your Partner Is Infertile, What Next?

Marriage is a very beautiful thing and there are a lot of expectations when one is getting married. Obviously, partners expect that they are going to have children that are going to add to the joy of the family.

No one wants to think that they will reach marriage and not have children, plus no one gets married without the desire to have children.

Now, what if your partner for some reason just can’t have children? No one wants to think about that. It happens though and it has brought several marriages to an end.

There are a number of solutions to this in this modern era. Of course, the procedure may be a little expensive but if it can save a marriage, why not?

There is what is called surrogacy where another woman can carry your child for you. Here the woman’s egg is fertilized with the husband’s sperm. This makes it possible for the child to be for the husband and wife much as the woman may not have carried it. This procedure may require some legal framework for safety and to make sure everyone keeps their end of the deal.

Another thing to consider could be adoption. Now, adoption does not make you the biological parent of children but you can raise them as yours. Normally this is the last thing, couples think about especially here in Africa. These are not the only solutions, there are a number of them to consider including patience with one another. This is because some couples have given birth even after 10 years together.

Fertility treatments have also yielded results in recent times, although a number of couples still struggle. The most common common these days is In vitro fertilization, commonly known as IVF. This is a process of fertilization where an egg is combined with sperm in vitro. The process involves monitoring and stimulating a woman’s ovulatory process, removing an ovum or ova from their ovaries, and letting a man’s sperm fertilize them in a culture medium in a laboratory.

There are a number of other treatment regimens that usually yield positive results. However, not all of them are safe. In some countries, they are even considered illegal.
