Any advice on dealing with a spouse who thinks he's sterile while TTC??

My spouse and I are both in our 20's and we've decided on TTC. It has only been 3 months with no success. He thinks he is sterile. This stresses me out greatly because I feel like he is not optimistic at all. I know we can get checked but how long should we wait before that? I feel like maybe we're just having a slow start to things. I don't know. Anyone have any advice on what to do or how to get him feeling more positive?
