What Happens With Bad Sperm Results?

[maaybe2010]

We get them back on Monday!!!

It's his first one, I'm excited lol
But what happens if they're bad?
Does it depend which factor they're bad at?

Hey! I guess there's nothing you can do except to wait? Hmmm, I know how miserable the wait can be.... I waited 1 week for mine too.

OH, but if you already have 2 kids, the sperm count can't be bad???

 

[maaybe2010]

One week? lol We've been waiting about 3 weeks!
I don't have any kids. . . .

Oh I forgot to add that he gets the scans of his man bits back as well
Although I'm sure she said everything seemed fine. . . . ?

Hey! Sorry, I thought when you said "< 3" you meant TTCing your number 3.... that's where the misunderstanding went... I Hope everything goes on well for you!

 

[maaybe2010]

Oh! lol
It's meant to be a heart

Thanks hun

It really depends on the results. If in normal to lower range they can do IUI, or IUI with clomid. Severly low results at least what my doc told us as we have severe male factor we have to do IVF with ICSI. Good luck hun hope the results are good

first thing they do here if the man's sample isn't of good quality is give supplements to improve it (motility and count)

Thanks hun

My OH has been on supplements for about 6 months though so I supposed they'd just skip to the next step after that ?

Anyone know what that is?

My DH has poor morphology, we weren't offered anything to assist. I don't know that there is a lot they can do beyond supplements but we weren't even advised to use them - just told it was low and that was that. he now takes vitamin c and zinc, avoids hot baths and wears loose cotton grundies. x
