Smile Hi ~~ I'm new here!

Hi everyone! I'm new to the group. A little about me, I am 35 and I'm married to my best friend. Dh is also 35. We have been married for 4 years and are experiencing a male factor. We had two IUI and both were negative.

I look forward to making some new friends!

Peggy

Peggy, welcome to the forum. While I'm a little younger then you your story is close to home. We too suffered from male factor infertility. We went through three IUIs which all failed and then a failed IVF attempt (didn't make it to transfer). What side of the scope if your DH's male factor? Mine was morphology maily although his count was a little low and his motility was borderline. To give you hope, I'm now 16 weeks 4 days pregnant from a natural cycle, my second pregnancy this year. So don't give up!

Hello Everyone I'm new here too.

I am 23 years old, DH is 38. we met when I was 16, he was 31. In the almost 8 years we have been together we've never used protection. I've never been on BC either. About 5 years ago we saw a fertility doctor and we found out that he has a low sperm count with low motility. We kind of just let it go and haven't seen the doc since. We are seeing him again on Jan. 29. I'm really excited, I want children so bad. So far everything with me is fine. All tests came back normal, everything else is normal as well. I'd like to try ICSI before we try IVF but not sure if the doc will just suggest IVF from the start. Can't wait to be a MOM!!!
