Annoyed - SA 'depressed parameters' **updated**

edited March 2015 in Trouble TTC
Anyone have any experience with this? We've been waiting for my SO's latest SA to come back for what feels like forever and the doc didn't even bother to call himself. The secretary called and the only thing they were able to tell him was the he has 'depressed parameters.'

Can anyone clue me in on what this could mean? We will get the official report on Monday when he goes to pick up the actual report for us to take to my RE appointment. Every other SA we've had has been within normal limits - possibly lower motility, but they've never used the phrase 'depressed parameters.'

Thanks!

Updated: we have official numbers now

Count - 76 million
Motility - 34.5%
Morphology - 3%

The count is good but the low motility and morphology have me concerned.

  • I'm not the expert on SA numbers but this looks pretty good to me!  What did your RE say?


    Married for 7 years, TTC for 4 years
    dx:  Diminished Ovarian Reserve
    2 Clomid IUI's + 4 injectable IUI's= 5 BFNs and 1 mc




  • We go to the RE next Tuesday. I'm concerned because on his results they indicate that we should see an RE and that normal morphology with less than 4% can still have significant male factor infertility
