Why talking about the pressure from the in-laws both father in-law and mother in-law, Mrs Ayamolowo said there would be many advice from them especially from the father side most a time if the marriage has stayed for years without child. She if the couple are both Christian they would be able to overcome the challenges coming from their inlaws but if they are not Christian, it’s likely that they yied to the pressure and do otherwise which according to her may not be too good . In her narrative, she said Infertility can also affected a virgin lady or women.

She said experience has shown that some women have a male pelvic bone in their body-Women or some woman womb is very small to the extent that she could not carry baby . All these are factors that are causing Infertility in the marriage.
Another causes responsible for infertility in marriage could be miscarriage . She said this normally occurred at time to some women that have involved in series of abortion during their useful age and when it’s time for them to get pregnant it would now be to difficult as most of them would now have miscarriage.
She said though it was not in all cases that this normally happened as some of them who lived a rough life , having series of abortion could be Lucky not to have miscarriage and they will give birth to their babies.
She also considered other factors like marine spirits woman who had vows in their spiritual world not to give birth to her husband in the physical world. She explained that some have spiritual husbands who have given birth to their husbands in the spiritual realm while they would not allowing them to give birth to their early husbands because of this. In her words ” Some women if you see them, their breast will swear up and big in their body and tommy when they get pregnant or giving birth in their realm of spirit. I even saw one when I was working in my place of work when she wanted to put to bed. She said , ha! allow me to go, I can’t give birth in this maternity as my husband does not hear the crying of a baby, let be going…” She said the woman was referring to her spiritual husband on that day.
A prayer of deliverance was conducted on her and later the woman , started begging them not to tell her physical husband what she said when she came to her senses. Also, the Infertility may be natural at time without anybody know the causes of the problems.She also talked about vibroad which is preventing the sperm from penetrating to the ovary as this could cause woman from having pregnancy and that was why you see some women going for a medical operation before they could get pregnant.
She also said that, it was not advisable for husband and wife to be living far away from one another most especially when they are still waiting for the fruit of the labour as this could also caused Infertility in marriage.
