Protect your wife from social pressures of infertility - Nigerian man who became a father after years of marriage advises men

A Nigerian man, Arinze Uzoagu has advised men to protect their wives from social pressure and the stigmas attached to the issue of infertility.

Mr Uzoagu, from Anambra State, and his wife, Chinaza Blessing welcomed quadruplets, three girls and a boy, early April, 2022, after six years of waiting.

"Infertility is enough problem for a person or couple going through it. Infertility is enough pressure on people going through that phase in life," he said on Thursday, September 15.

"They need happiness and love to conquer. What they don't need is further pressure from family and friends. You can suggest possible solutions for them but do it with love and subtle approach.

"Exclusive to men(this paragraph). It is your duty to protect your wife from pressures of the society and your family or even her family or friends.

"Exclusive to women as well, do not let frustrations as a result of infertility turn you into a wreck. Always strife to make your home a peaceful environment.

"Infertility is enough pressure, show love to people around you who are in this situation.....never mock a man or a woman because they do not have a child"
