A large number of married couples the world over are childless. It is shocking to know that in India the female partner is often blamed for the couple being childless.
(a) Why in your opinion the female partner is often blamed for such situations in India ? Mention any two values that you as a biology student can promote to check this social evil.
(b) State any two reasons responsible for the cause of infertility.
(c) Suggest a technique that can help the couple to have a child where the problem is with the male partner.


(a) In India the female partner is often blamed for the couple being childless because our society is a male dominating society so nobody blames the male. Lack of education, awareness is the another reason. People are not aware about scientific reasons for infertility.

Two values that we can promote to check this social evil are:
i. People should be given proper education about all this. They should be made to understand that both the male and the female can have problems. 
ii. They should be made aware of the causes for infertility and the ways how to overcome it.

(b) The reasons responsible for the cause of infertility are -: 
i. Physical
ii. Congenital etc. 

(c) Artificial insemination is a technique that can help the couple to have a child where the problem is with male partner. In this technique, semen collected either from husband or a healthy donor is artificially introduced into vagina or uterus of the female.
