    We've been TTC since January 2006 - no success at all - now know DH has 2-4% morphology - so will most likely have most success with ICSI. We've had the pre-appointments - but I am so, so, so scared of actually going through with it... the money... the fear of it not being successful... the fear of wondering how the hell I will cope with the shots and hormones.... and I don't even want to dare think about how I'll cope emotionally with a BFN... or if it just doesn't stick...
    Hi. I'm just starting out on this journey myself and have all the same fears you mention...still don't know if we'll go ahead with IVF/ICSI....DH has same 4% morphology and low results across the board. To add to it they've told us he is just about to run out of sperm and we haven't got a lot of time up our sleeve because he want from 15% to 4% within 5 months!!

    Anyway, just wanted to send you and hope you find the support you need. I don't really know how I haven't lost the plot by now but basically I keep myself busy with loads of exercise, work and family life....I've been purposely open about our situation but as time goes on am finding that is more a hindrance than a help...funny that really. I did it because I thought it was better than bottling it up but now that we're much further down the track, people don't realise that some of the things they say are hurtful.

    Should we make the decision to not go down the assisted fertility track and decide to stop with any further additions to our family, I struggle with how I will actually mentally and emotionally do that.

    Anyway, hope your assisted fertility journey is a successful one. Will you be doing a cycle this year?
