Q: My husband and I have been happily married for the last 6 years. I got pregnant while I was on the pill and opted to have an abortion since our parents were not informed about our marriage. I have been trying to get pregnant for the last 2 years but have lost interest in having sex. Same goes for my husband. The last time we had sex was months ago. Both of us have no urge to have sexual intercourse. But we want a child badly.

A:You need to get investigated for infertility, since you have not conceived in the last two years. Also get treatment for loss of interest in sex, which can occur, if it is for the sole purpose of conceiving a child, especially if there is no success. You need to get investigated, take relevant treatment and lower the stress factor, which may also be the cause for lack of interest.
