Our Dr called us from his home yesterday. Everything has come in as normal. Low end of normal (21 million), but normal enough. Motility was a bit low, but isn't a big deal if/when we go IVF since a lab will inject sperm directly into the egg. Our dr's only concern is that if I had no IF issues of my own, we might run into trouble trying to conceive naturally. I wonder if the birth control stim experiment then, is worth it. But for now, we celebrate, b/c we're going to take our victories where we can get them. This news has also done wonders for Larry's mood lately, so I certainly count this as good news.

    Happy to hear good news!…

    SA can change dramatically due to different circustances. If the count was on the low side, they usually want him to have between 48but no more than 72 hours without an ejaculation before the test. If it is is less, or more, the count may be on the low side.

    Don´t give up hope about the BC experiment, it can happen, it did the trick for me once. After the BC I was on natural supplemements also.

    Have a great week! 🙂

    Glad to hear that they are decent swimmers, and ICSI will take care of the rest 🙂
