Aisha Tyler reveals her struggle with infertility
On Tuesday, Aisha Tyler opened up about something that’s no laughing matter at all for her and her husband, Jeff Tietjens — their inability to have a child.
From Madame Noire:
Aisha Tyler is known for being the funny girl in any crowd, and daily she brings her humor to the set of afternoon talk show, The Talk. But on Tuesday, Aisha Tyler opened up about something that’s no laughing matter at all for her and her husband,  Jeff Tietjens — their inability to have a child.
The concept for the day’s show was for the co-hosts to tell a never-before-told secret about themselves. And while everyone was shocked to learn Sharon Osbourne had had a fling with Jay Leno, Aisha’s painful secret was far more moving. Here’s what the 42-year-old revealed to her co-hosts and the whole world about her infertility issues.

So we went to a doctor to get examined and I was told that I have some problems with a torturous fallopian tube, which makes it very hard for the sp*erm to get to the egg, so the doctors recommended that we maybe think about IVF… but after 40 your chances of getting pregnant are between 2% and 8%. My chance was about 5%.
