What Are The Causes Of Infertility?
i am a 26 year old female and my partner is 32, we are both in average health.
We both have a child each from previous relationships, but yet can not concieve a child together.
I have had the dye test etc at my local hospital but they found nothing wrong, we have been trying for the last 5 years??
what else could be wrong!!

Hi,
I would suggest that you ask your partner to get his semen analysis done, preferably on two occasions, at least one month apart, after 3-4days of abstinence. If thete is an issue there, we can move forward.
Ideally, analysis of both partners should be simultaneously performed, so you should also get tests done beyond HSG, which is one of many tests that are done for couples attempting to conceive.
