My OH takes a very small dose of venlafaxine which is an anti depression med, and I just found this on the net.
Men taking the drugs (including the one he takes.) were found to suffer a dramatic fall in their sperm count while on the treatment, the papers said. They had reduced sperm concentration and impaired sperm motility.
When they stopped taking the SSRIs, the mens fertility problems disappeared, although they came back if they started antidepressant treatment again..
So bad news and good news, but I´m not sure I can get him, (or should even ask) that he stop until we conceive. Just another thing to get in a tizzy about, oh dear.
