How Do We Manage Male Fertility?

Fertility issues in a heterosexual couple generally fall into a 50/50 split between men and women. So why then, when we talk about infertility in a couple trying to conceive, does the focus often fall to the woman? Even in a world of increased research and technology around having a baby, men’s fertility is still an under-discussed topic. Dr. Anand Patel is a UK-based GP and leading specialist in men’s fertility. He tells Stephanie just how underresearched it is in medicine, and walks us through what getting your fertility tested properly looks like, how to change your lifestyle to optimise your sperm, and to remove some of the stigma around male infertility.
