Hi, my husband had a vasectomy some 4 years ago when our daughter was 3.5yo. I always wanted more children but at that stage hubby didn't. We decided that we would try for another baby but as the vasectomy was a few years old the FS recommended that we go through IVF. We started our first IVF cycle on October 3rd 2008 and we are hoping for good news next Tuesday.

I did a full IVF cycle with egg pickup and hubby had TESA (needle through testes to extract sperm) both were under a GA but can depend on the doc as to whether men do it under a GA or local. These were done one after the other and ISCI performed.

We had 2 embryos make it and both put back.

Hope this helps your friend.
