Trouble TTC

AND the Diagnosis is in...

So I've been to the doctor more this year that almost the last 10 years combined. Been sucked of blood like from a vampire, and the results of all our testing is in.

Turns out my fears were realized and I have bilaterally blocked tubes, and a unterine polyp.Sad

DH's SA came back at Volume - 1.4, Count 37 mill, Motility 59%, and Morphology 2%. Double Sad

My RE is suggesting we move to preparation for IVF with ICSI. But do you guys think a repeat SA is even worth it? The morph was just so low.

So far Health Ins has covered all the diagnostic testing with us only covering copay. IVF is a bit scary for me. DH and I discussed that if that was the only option they gave us that we might just give up here and adopt. I'm just trying to process the fact that my own baby might not be for me. And I sort of want to stop thinking about babies at all for a bit.

Anyone else have a similar diagnosis? What has your experience been?

Re: AND the Diagnosis is in...

  • I'm so sorry for both of the difficult diagnosis's. (probably didn't spell that right) That is a lot to have to deal with and I hate it for you. BIG BIG ((((HUGS))) today. DH and I have discussed that IVF is not the right choice for us either, so if we

    I guess my questions would be what options did your doctor suggest? Are they going to attempt to unblock your tubes surgically or just remove them altogether? The polyp could likely be removed at the s

  • With his MFI, I wouldn't say IUI is totally out.  But because of your blocked tubes it is.  If you want to be set more at ease - ask your RE for another consult and that you want to see the X ray and discuss the tubal blockage more.  OR

  • Thanks everyone for the support and suggestions. All of you are great voices of reason!

    The more I think about it, the more I want to re-discuss the HSG results and possibly get a second opinion. He didn't mention hydrosalpinx, so I would assume
