Some also suggested that they could adopt a child or use a sper'm donor.
Infertility sensitivity
The issue of infertility and marriage is a sensitive one in many African cultures, where having children is seen as a sign of success and fulfillment.
Many couples face stigma and pressure from their families and society if they are unable to conceive.
Some resort to alternative methods, such as IVF, surrogacy, or adoption, while others opt for divorce or polygamy.
