Hi All,

Thanks in advance for your help!!
We have been ttc for almost a year. Its not one complete year yet so we are not undergoing an fertility treatment yet.
I have started taking EPO this cycle. Since I dont want to take any chances, I am thinking to have my hubby start taking zinc supplements and folic acid.
I have heard this increases the sperm count. May be he doesn't have a low sperm count but what is the harm??
Has anyone used zinc tablets for husbands??? Does it help to concieve fast??
Does it have any side effects for him??
