At What Age?

At what age did you go to your first doctor regarding your fertility issues? And also, if you feel like discussing it, what was the issue?

My husband and I went when we were 22 years old. I already had my Jenna from a previous relationship. We knew that Matt had less than a 1% chance of getting me pregnant, but didn't realize he shot blanks. (This was due to his surviving Testicular Cancer.) At that time we just wanted another child, I didn't care where it came from, as long as it was a real live child. So since it was going to cost the same amount to adopt from Ukraine as it was to try IVF, we chose to adopt. It wasn't until last year that we really tried to start having a biological child together.
