Has anyone heard of success with Severe MF and IUI???

I haven't and I am sure there are not too many, but if anyone knows of any will you tell me, so I know that I am not totally wasting my time on this IUI.

My Dhs count is around 1 to 2 million...


Thanks guys...or if you tell me that my chances are slim to none I appreciate that too..

Hi JF, My husband had a low variable count and my doctor told me that unless his sperm count increases dramatically, he would only consider us for IVF. He had put him on meds and his count increased to 11 mio. He wanted a count of 7 mio for IUI.

Everyone is different. You just need one strong guy to gettin there. Probably, it is worth a try compared to IVF cost. Why don't you check what your RE has to say. As for me, I would weigh the cost of both and if there isn't much of difference would directly go for IVF with ICSI.

Yeah I think that this is a waste of our time...oh well...I guess you never know...and I don't have to pay for them, so I guess I will just do it and then do IVF in Oct/Nov again...thanks for responding to my post.

Good luck to you guys!!!

If this one doesn't work we will have to look into donor IUIs...
