DH is going to be taking Clomid until we do our next IVF cycle. He will also be getting a very small variocele repair surgery in Feb. His urologist said he wouldn't normally recommend the surgery on a small variocele, but since we are going to explore every route to getting more than 5 sperm it was worth a shot. He did tell us about the medical miracles who start producing 20 mil. in their ejaculate, but my guess is that won't be us (me being cautiously pessimistic). I am just hoping they can get a hundred or so to come out so DH doesn't need the TESE at the next IVF. He will be getting a s/a done in May (I think) to see if the surgery and/or Clomid has made any difference in what's coming out. I would be ecstatic if we found out we could actually try naturally, but I don't want to get my hopes up. So, assuming there is no-not much change in DH's s/a we will be doing IVF # 2 in either June or July.

DH has been such a great guy and has had no objections to any surgeries or medicines or anything that has been recommended to potentially help. I knew he wanted to be a dad, but I never realized it was this much I just hope that after going through all of this we will be successful.

He is such a trooper I know you have to be proud of him! I hope that it works and you are holding your little bundle of joy in your arms very soon!

Have you seen the FertilAid Blend for men? I've also seen ProXeed in Conceive Magazine, I know that they aren't prescriptions and are a blend of vitamins but I thought I'd at least let you know

Good luck!
