My DH has been taking testosterone supplement injections off and on for the past 2 years for weight lifting. We have been TTC # 2 since April 2009. This year we began seeing an RE and have done 5 IUIs. DH's counts come back good so we never said anything about the testosterone thinking it wasn't hurting him. He takes 1.5-2ccs weekly.
We are coming around to possibly stopping TTC at the 2 year mark. Can someone tell me if this testosterone could be affecting him in ways that aren't showing on the SAs that could be the reason we aren't getting pregnant??
We got pregnant with DD within 2 months of trying...
