Hi ladies.
ashxl: I'm not sure what method your DH morphology was measured but a normal person has between 5%-10% morphology I was told by my RE. I believe my clinic uses the Strict method. Sounds like maybe your DH was checked using a different method.

Well the first time my DH was checked it was 4%. My OB said to take the test over again just to be sure. So I had him cut out his caffiene completely, drink more water, and take megaman vitamins from GNC. Well, the second time we tested it was only 2%! So anyway, the fertility center said to start IUI which we are now on round two and I am 2 dpiui right now. Well now that my DH is back to taking care of himself just like he always has, his morphology is back up to 4%. Maybe his sperm likes caffiene too or something..lol.

ahgraves: Don't give up hope! You will eventually have the baby you've always wanted. I am trying 3 rounds of IUI's and then if that doesn't work we are moving on to IVF. I hope the IUI's work, they are only about $400 each time. The IVF would be around $10,000! Good luck to you ahgraves. Find a good fertility clinic and they will be able to help you.
