Infertility

New SA result :(

So, when we did our last IUI on NYE last year, we found DH's 1% morphology.

We just got another SA b/c we are in the middle of IVF #2.

0% normal morph

100% with head defects   :(

 

I guess this was the same as when we did IVF # 1 in February.

SA results from 2/15/10:

20 million/mL, 35% motility, grade 2-3 and 0% normal morph

Sa results from 12/27/10:

42 million/mL, 25% motility, grade 12, 0% normal morph

 

Depressing....we went to a male IF MD last year and have been taking expensive supplements all year (and the numbers look worse)....

:(

Re: New SA result :(

  • I'm sorry. That's heartbreaking after the supplements all year, it makes it even harder. I hope the Dr's can come up with some sort of plan for you. I'm not very knowledgeable in MFI so I'm not sure what the options are. But ((HUGS)) to you and your DH, I'm sure this is very deflating to him.

  • I'm so sorry hun! I know how disappointing it is to go through a year of meds and not have that help. Dh and I are dealing with MFI as well and his meds haven't really helped at all. ((Big Hugs)).   Are they able to do ICSI or TESE to see if they can get better soldiers?  :)

  • RE definiitely does ICSI. We got 12 eggs with IVF #1, 8 fertilized with ICSI and 5 made it to blastocyst (but a c/p and m/c). :(

    So,  I guess ICSI "fixes" the morph issue.

    But it's pretty depressing that it is so unlikely that we'll EVER conceive w/o IVF and ICSI!

    Neither will we, but at least science has come as far as it has.  Not too long ago we would've been SOL with our MFI diagnosis. 

    Best of luck to you!
