Will it make much difference...

[zowiey]

First off, I am so sorry for how this reads, it's quite hard to explain in nice way!!

Hubby has just admitted to me that when he was producing his "Sample" in February, he missed the pot, and only managed to get a little in it, so he decided to wait 20 minutes and have another go! This time he managed to get it in the pot, but didn't manage to produce much! So anyway! When we got the results back, it said that the sample had a low volume, high viscosity and he had 90% abnormals.

Now I know it won't make that much difference,but do you think it might be worth getting another test done? Could it affect the outcomes?

Also, I'm not exactly sure on his count!
It says: density (x10^6) 19
but then there is also Total motile count: (x10^6) 21

So which one is his actual count? Its confused me for a while!!

Thanks!!!

Yeah will make a big difference! Ask for a recount x

Def do it again, the first lot would have been the optimal swimmers and a second go only minutes later will probably have a reduced everything. Go for a second one I would

Also the first bit that comes out is the best. You should definately get another test done!

Ask for another test to be done, you could always explain what happened first time round (if your hubby doesnt mind lol)

Good luck

Thanks ladies! I think I will ask for another test, even if we have to go private. I couldn't believe it when he told me! I asked him why he didn't just tell me it had gone wrong, and got another test pot and gone another day! We didn't have an appointment or anything! But he just said he didn't think it would make a difference! Bloody man!!!

Oh, men. LMAO. I agree with everyone- have him give it another go.

I'm still trying to work out how he missed the pot! Really shouldn't be giving that too much thought.....

Hi Zowie
If i makes you feel any better my man missed the pot first time round. He got me to help him a few days later and it wasn't easy i ended up scraping some off me back into the pot. The nhs do normally ask for 2 samples an couple of weeks apart good luck x

My OH had a form to fill out and it asked if he missed getting any in the pot and if so was it the first bit or the second bit (I think it was actually worded like that too. . . ) Did he fill this out?

I would definately get a re-count!
