Infertility can be due to many causes, like problems in semen, or disturbances in ovulation, tubal function or uterine environment.Both the partners need to undergo investigations to find out the reason for giving appropriate further management.I would suggest you to consult an infertility specialist to get properly examined, investigated and treated accordingly.Hope you found the answer helpful.
