Infertility

Intro

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this board so I wanted to say hello and introduce myself, also give you a little background info...So I'm 33 and DH is 34. We have been TTC since May 2013. We have since seen an RE and have both been tested. All tests for me have been normal. DH had a SA which revealed a count of 10,000, Motility >50 and morphology could not be determined. IUI has never been an option since the count is as low as it is, and after DH trying six months of clomid with no improvement we've decided to move to IVF. I'm hoping to start BC pills with my next cycle and for ER the second week of November. I'm glad I found this board. I see how supportive you all are during this process. I'm sure I'll learn a lot from you ladies....
Me:33 DH:34
TTC Since:May 2013
SA:Count 10k Motility >50 Morphology?
Dx:MFI
IVF set for Nov 2014
-(10/31)canceled due to azoospermia (0 count)
DH in treatment-waiting for count to improve
