Help convincing husband to have sperm count tested?

I want my husband to have his sperm count tested..but he seems offended and says he is not the problem that his sperm is good. I'm not trying to make him out to be the "problem" but I'd like to check this option before going into more serious and more expensive checks for myself. We have been having unprotected sex for going on 5yrs now. Granted I have never had a normal period until here recently.

But back to my question…..How can I make him comfortable doing this for me?

    tell him how importatnt it is to you, say its just a test see if theres a problem, tell him your have one to. then you can move forward. and deal with it together what ever the out come. then let him think on it good luck

    I would simply tell him that it must be done . . . does he have any other children that shows his swimmers did work? Up to 40% of fertility issues are male based . . . and many couples both have issues that need to be treated.

    Any reputable fertility doctor is going to insist that you both go through fertility testing including a semen analysis before doing any sort of invasive fertility testing. With a history of irregular periods – you should both be tested. It is not fair to ask you to take fertility meds with side effects and a higher risk for ovarian cancer without confirming that he is well.

    If you need to go through treatments like IUI or IVF . . . then he is going to have to get over it and leave his contribution in the cup . . . even if he is not the one with the fertility issue.

    A few moments of awkwardness will be worth it if it helps you to start your family. He just needs to remind himself of that.
