However see your doctor, If you are a Woman and: • You are aged 35 to 40 and have been trying to conceive for six months or longer • You are over the age of 40 • You menstruate irregularly or not at all • Your periods are very painful • You've been diagnosed with endometriosis or pelvic inflam-matory disease • You've had multiple miscarriages • You've undergone treatment for cancer When should a male patient see a doctor? • You have low sperm count or other problems with sperm • You have a history of testicular, prostate or sexual problems • You've undergone treatment for cancer • You have testicles that are small in size or swelling in the scrotum known as a varicocele • You have others in your family with infertility problems
