The male side of infertility is often overlooked.  If you want to hear more about male infertility then take a listen to this episode when I talk to  Dr. Sirena Ibrahim-Rabban. 

Dr. Sirena Ibrahim-Rabban, PhD is a Social and Health Psychologist who received her doctorate from Stony Brook University. Her research focuses on social psychological aspects of health, particularly reproductive health in both women and men. Her dissertation focused on examining father involvement in the context of pregnancy. More specifically, she investigated attitudes of father involvement, behavioral intentions, and how this leads to father involvement during the post-partum period.
