Hello everyone! I have to say I am so thankful to be able to read everyone's posts and stories. I fertility just plain sucks and it feels 'good' (as good as it can) to know I'm not alone. My husband and I have been married for 14 months and have been TTC since then. We found out my DH's morphology was a 2, and has now gone up to a 4. We have gone through many tests and are currently at a stand still. We are going to try for the next few months, while we save up for the OOP expenses of IUI. We were put in a vitamin regemin and also had to change for husbands clothes to a more breathable material to help cool the boys off to better the morphology levels. We are hoping we will be good candidates! We will be meeting with the Fertility Specialists soon to discuss further options.
Hi @taragust - welcome. Sorry to hear about your DH's poor morphology. My DH's is a 1% :-S He's getting tested for varicocele. Infertility is certainly not an easy road. We've all played that waiting game... it's not easy, we know.
Hope you get into meet the Fertility Specialists soon! best of luck to you!
