LWH or general what to expect at first appointment with FS

[sarahlou1985]

OH has been diagnosed with having severe morphology, everything else is good but morphology just 1%

We have been referred to Liverpool womens to see Dr LJ. Just wondered if anyone knew what we should expect at our first appointment? Are you waiting a while for an appointment (just waiting for it through the post)

We already have a child each so I know ivf is out of the question. If we have a child each will we be entitled to IUI on the NHS? Will they do tests such as HSG etc or is it if I'm not entitled to IVF then they don't do any other tests? Further SA or blood tests etc?

Hope this makes sense

Hmm thought at least someone may have been to see a fertility specialist. Never mind. Could I have posted this in the wrong thread?

hi sarah
am waiting to see the fs myself so cant help much but a friend of mine has fertility issues + her partner has children from a previous relationship they have treated and given her various tests for her fertility issues but she is not entitled to any treatment in terms of iui or ivf, but what they offer varies on your pct my best advice would be to contact the PALS for your pct as they should be able to tell u the specific fertility policy for ur area.

hope this is of soon help

Sorry, I'm not from the UK and therefore, I'm not at all familiar with the coverage you could get.

I do know that with male factor, you'll have better luck with IUI, IVF, or IVF with ICSI. Good luck.

Yes I have seen specialists, but as regards to already having children and the availability in your area, I have no idea. Sorry
