When a person fails to perform this most important obligation, he is regarded as one of the most miserable members of the family and society. It is in this struggle to help childless couples realize their dream of becoming parents that scientists all over the world have been carrying out intensive researches on the subject matter. Consequently, in recent times, there has been a remarkable advancement in the achievement of science and technology regarding the fertility problem. Today, medical science has provided hope for couples by the use of suitable techniques to intervene in the problems of infertility. This paper seeks to address the Tiv concept of family hood and procreation. | en_US |
