An elderly childless couple visits the doctor...

And tell him that they would like to conceive a child. The doctor tells them that it's unlikely they will be capable of having a child, but will help them the best he can. He gives the old man a jar and tells him, "Go home and give it a try with this, come back when you have a sample."

The next week, the couple returns, empty jar in hand. The old man tells the doctor, "Doc, I tried the best I could, but it just wouldn't work."

The doctor reassuringly remarks to the man, "Try with your left hand, try with your right hand, maybe have your wife give it a shot too."

A week later, the couple returns with a still empty jar. The old man hands it back to the doctor and remarks, "Sir, I tried with my right hand, I tried with my left hand, and I even had my wife try. We've come to the conclusion that we'll need you to help us do this."

Before the doctor could even remark, the old lady turns and says, "Can you open the jar for us?"

Not original author, read it in a magazine years ago and haven't seen it posted.
