Trouble TTC

f/u to yesterday: we have an IUI plan

We were trying to decide between IUI+clomid or just IUI for our very first treatment cycle.  Our only problem (that we found) was a low count for MH.  His count in July was 6 mil/ml with 60% motility.  For December it was 11 mil/ml and 35% motility.  Morph is fine.

We are going to see the urologist tomorrow, but I have heard that treatments for sperm count don't always work. So, I want to get going anyway.

So, our first treatment plan will be IUI without clomid.  I will still be monitored and triggered, just no clomid.  I think it will be good to do a monitored cycle without clomid and see what my body does.  We could also look at it as a practice run.  I think it will be good just to see if this could possibly work before moving on to clomid and the risk of twins.

I am expected my period tomorrow (big temp drop today). And then I'll have my first monitoring appointment on Monday and away we go!

Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.
