Hello
Has anyone conceived via sperm being extracted by needle from their husband? I think this is the way we have to approach and I have no idea what to expect.:confused:

This procedure is called a testicular biopsy. They insert a fine needle into the testicle and extract approximately 50 sperm.
This is done for men who have trouble ejaculating.

In our case its not becasue my husband cant ejaculate - he has azoospermia due to a collapsed epididymis..:confused:
I don't have personal experience with this, but a previous colleague (male) I worked with had this done, resulting in a beautiful baby. Apparently it's quite uncomfy for the bloke, but probably comparable to some of the IVF/investigative procedures us ladies have gone through in our TTC journeys.
Hi Zoi
Just spotted your name on the forum, haven't spoken for ages. Guess what were pregnant!!! It took a little longer than we expected, six goes, but it worked! Go for it... what have you got to lose.
