Trying to Get Pregnant

fertility supplement's

My husband has recently had his blood checked for low testosterone and his Dr says if it comes back low he will be put on testosterone supplement's. I have read this lowers sperm count. Does anybody know anything about this?

Re: fertility supplement's

  • Yes testosterone supplements will lower sperm count. If you are ttc, you must see a urologist who specializes in infertility. There are ways to treat it and increase spermcount. My husband went to the doc who wrote this blog. He used anastrozole and here is a link to our doctors blog post about it. https://www.maledoc.com/blog/2011/06/07/more-pills-and-testosterone/
    Regardless your dh needs to see a specialist. Good luck. Don't try to self treat him either, you could make it worse!
