Does cold medicine affect sperm count/quality?
in Infertility
DH has a bunch of upper respiratory stuff going on and is wanting to take some medicine before going to bed. I just realized I have no idea if medication will affect his sperm or not. I feel like this is a stupid question, but...
Thanks!
TTC #1 since 12/07
SA 9/08=borderline normal
HSG 1/09 found R tube blocked
Multiple IUIs both with oral and injectible drugs from 2/09-2/11
Started domestic adoption process in 5/10, homestudy complete 9/10
Failed adoption after home with baby for 2 weeks 11/10
Blessed through the miracle of private adoption with a son, born 6/6/11 (his grandma's bday) 7lbs 9oz 20.5 inches long! So worth the wait!

Re: Does cold medicine affect sperm count/quality?
I have never heard of this. Did you try googling it?
If it does harm to sperm then you wouldn't know it until 90 days later anyway. The only thing it could possibly affect is your DH's "performance" if he is all dopey from the medicine. I would say that one night of cold medicine will not kill off all DH's sperm.
