Hi everyone! I am kinda new here...I popped in a few times a year ago but didn't stay. My husband had a vasectomy 8 years ago and a reversal two years ago. We tried to get pregnant for a year and then did fostercare for a year and now we are back trying again. His SA numbers look so much better then they did and that has given me some hope. We tried two IUI's with clomid with no success. We are going to hopefully try another IUI in September or October. His SA has different "things" then most I see posted on here. I will add them to this post!

Hello!!

First......WOW!!! Those numbers sure did jump!! They look GREAT now!!!

and second-- are you trying naturally or doing any meds for you such as clomid? (that stuff creates more eggs for higher chances)

OH -One more thing-- look into "Instead Cups"-- they are what got me pregnant after 15 months of ttc with a 7 mill count. They've worked for some ladies but not all.. Its worth a shot!

GOOD LUCK and nice to see you back on the boards!!

I have a Dr apt. on the 13th of september and i am going to talk to the dr about trying IUI with Clomid. I have done two cycles last year and it didn't work but I am thinking with the major count increase we have a better chance!

Welcome! Your DH's counts are MUCH better, it looks like motility is the only thing that needs to improve. Do you have him on any supplements or anything?

[hallie123]

He isn't on anything. If anyone has advice on something he can take to help, please let me know!
