We didn't see a FS until after the embolisation was done. We went to a urologist who found the varicocele and who wanted to do surgery to fix it. We then went to the guy that Leah recommended in Kogarah Hospital and had the embolisation done. We then had an appointment with a FS who, after looking at DH's results, said that he agreed with us having fixed it, although he thought the surgery was the better option (not the embolisation). I was quite surprised because I had heard they thought it was a waste of time. I think because DH had the triple defect he thought it might improve something. Well the results speak for themselves, although we're not pg yet.....
It was a very difficult decision to make because everyone we spoke to told us something different. Leah was recommending the embolisation, the urologist recommended the surgery, other things I read said neither would get us pg. It was really hard to feel confident about what we were doing. In the end I decided we just had to choose something and do it, and ignore everyone else.
It is amazing what they can do though isn't it? They can make you ovulate if you don't... it's pretty incredible. I'm sure they will be able to help you.
