Jake Freeman , 34 , struggled with male infertility, a diagnosis medical professionals say has become increasingly common.
The medical profession increasingly views infertility as a disease, and a growing willingness to discuss the issue.
For some men, learning they have a low sperm count or they’re unlikely to be able to father biological children prompts self-doubt and questions about their manhood.
Jake and Courtney Freemans were diagnosed with infertility after a year of trying to conceive.
Sperm count has dropped by more than 1% annually from 1973 to 2000 and 2.6% between 2000 and 2018 .
Doctors have begun to see more sperm abnormalities caused by testosterone products men use to build muscle.
Courtney and Jake were infertile again at the fertility center.
The third time had worked, and the ultrasound showed they were pregnant.
Jake said he's looking forward to celebrating his first Father's Day as a parent.
He said he'll probably have the family over and cook some ribs or brisket for the first time.
