My DH just went and got his SA done (after sitting on the prescription for months trying to get his courage up and me trying not to push too hard) - and it came back with 1% morphology. Everything else seems fine - good counts and good mobility. Anyone in the same boat? The doctor didn't tell us much except that DH needs to redo the SA in a month and then we'll look at our options, which apparently with low morphology doesn't include IUI, you just go straight to IVF. Would love some opinions...
Hi, my DH has the same problem - he has 2% morphology, everything else seems ok. We have also done DNA fragmentation test and his is 24%, which is close to borderline of 27%. This is quite common for men who have low morphology. My doctor said our chances to conceive naturally are 4-5% and via IUI it doubles to 8-9%. Last resort would be IVF. I have been doing a lot of research online about how we can improve his morphology and overall sperm health naturally. I am unable to post any links here given that this is my first post, and not sure how to share it with you.
I am planning on putting my DH on very healthy diet - organic produce and meats, and to add all the supplements that can help to improve his sperm. I also want to do a detox on him. Of course, no alcohol, coffee - even decaf as it contains a lot of chemicals, black tea or chocolate because it also contains caffeine, no soy products. I read some success stories and people do report this helps but takes at least 2-3 months to see improvement.
Hopefully this helps and if you do research online you can find tons of info. My favourite site is naturalfertilityshop - google it.
