Trying to Get Pregnant

Results...finally!

DH finally got the results of his tests last week. The u/s was all clear. He does not have a varicocele! His 2nd SA was the same and showed no improvement. The SAs were only done a month apart, so things could be better in couple of months when the supplement he's been taking kicks in. He has an appt. on Monday to discuss the next steps. I'm guessing that would be bloodwork?

  • YAY for the u/s results!  it probably does take a few months to see the results from any type of supplements. 

    Hopefully they will schedule another SA for Janaury and that one will show you the Super Sperm!

    They didn't test him for that yet, but I think they probably will. I'll tell DH to ask about it on Monday. I can't imagine he would have low T, but I never thought he'd have low anything else either...

    I hope the pills work for your DH too! I've only read good things about them. The only bad thing is the way they smell! Ick!

    Yeah- hopefully they will check that! I never thought DH's would be low- and it was super low. Hopefully not the case for you and the supplements will kick in soon!

    I have never smelled them but thanks for the warning!! Ick!

    Funny story... DH had two of the pills sitting on the counter and was going to take them when we sat down to eat. I was halfway across the kitchen and smelled them! Nastay!

  • Great news! Has he not had his blood tested before? At DHs initial appointment, blood work was taken. I'd assume they would do bloodwork if he hasn't had it already.

    I thought it was odd that they didn't do b/w too! He is going to ask about it because it seems like the next logical step. Thanks for your input.

    eta: and thanks to everyone else who responded! I truly appreciate your support.

  • Thanks for the update. I haven't been on nearly as often the past couple weeks, but I was wondering how things were going for you. I hope the supplements kick in and you guys get your BFP soon!

    MH's urologist didn't do b/w either.  After he did the u/s and saw no obstructions, he basically told him to see an RE and that IUI would be the next step for us.  I actually asked our RE about b/w (specifically a testosterone test) and he said that if the urologist thought the results warranted one, he would have done it.  From what I've read, testosterone effects things like sperm count (not an issue for MH), which I'm guessing is why he didn't do the b/w.
