Hi!
I've posted a few times on this board, so thought I would do an update...
Hubs had an original SA done approx 4/5 weeks ago. The results were disappointing: count 7 million per ml, abnormal forms 86%.
We did another on Friday and received the results this morning: count 26 million per ml, abnormal forms 65%. Motility was ok too.
Dr said that 'this isn't the best SA I've ever seen, but its within the normal boundaries'. We are really thrilled. DH was diagnosed with a varicocele 2 weeks ago, so we will get that treated too - possibly with an operation.
We have cut down on our alcohol drastically for the last two months, and have been taking multivits and 1000mg Vit c. Since the first bad SA, we have also added Marilyn Glenville Fertility Plus, Linseed Oil 1000mg and specially prescribed Chinese Herbs.
We weren't expecting much to be honest, and are really happy that there is an improvement. Combined with my PCOS we were feeling like we had a mountain to climb - still could, but we have more hope.
Obviously this could all be a fluke, so we will do another test in a month or so, but its encouraging news.
Has anyone else's DH/DP experience such changes between SA? Would be interested to hear your experiences.
Sending luck and positive thoughts to everyone,
