Thanks persephone1! yeah we also worry about my DH's brother, he is only 21 though and not wanting kids for some years to come but i think we will reccomend him get tested when the times right so he dosn't have to go through as much as we did. It just shocks me to think a young male can have such bad semen when there is no reason behind it. My DH tried pot once so we cant put it down to that so i guess i just have to let my head rest thinking it is genetic. DH's uncle (his mothers brother) is infertile so my local GP said he may have heredited it but his uncles issues were unknown as they were trying 40 years ago when there wasnt any technology or IVF so once they had tried for years the DR just said they coulnt concieve natrually so they adopted. But im unsure if he would have ended up with this problem from his mothers side and his dad had no issues at all. Anyways sorry for my blabber lol. Thanks again ladies x
Well we have hit another brick wall! I went to see my fertility DR today about ahving test done on me, im having Karotype, lupus ( inhibitor, protein, c&s, At3,apcr)
factor V leiden, gliadin & anti-mysial antibodies, TSH, LH, FSH, testosterone, SHBG, insulin, Hba1c, BSL, full blood count, ACA and homocysteine! Hubby is having another sperm test for DNA frgmentation and he had 3 blood tests today aswell. Basically what my Dr said was he dosn't think im the problem he thinks its because DH's sperm is such bad quality thats effecting us to still not be pg. For the first time today i actually really thought it might not ever happen for us and believed it all these tests are costing us $638 and non of it is claimable on medicare!!! I feel like we are on this dead end road, i always believed that one will only be put through so much crap in life and then the good will come but we are still here 2 yrs down the track with no certainty! I think life is really cruel sometimes.
