You're not imagining it. When a couple has trouble conceiving, the advice, the products and the blame tend to land on her. He gets told to cut back on drinking and not much else. This is what I wish someone had told me years ago: male factors are involved in a large share of fertility problems, and he deserves clear, honest information too.

If you and your partner are trying to conceive, chances are most of the advice you've found online has been aimed at her. Ovulation tracking, cycle apps, fertility supplements for women. Male factor fertility plays a role in roughly half of all conception difficulties, and it's still wildly under-discussed.
