Hubby has the flu- will his high fever kill our chances??

Question

TTC for 2 mos- hubby has a fever 102 for 2 days. Bringing it down with Tylenol & mortrin but wondering- will it mess with his sperm? I'm so close to O day. :-( how long will the effects last if any??

Answer

That happened to my husband and doc said to not TTC for a couple of months as sperm takes 2-3 months to develop. Sigh. But he was REALLY sick so speak to your dr as it could be different for you. GL!

Answer

Fever does make an impact on sperm and conception. It might be worth talking to your doctor to see if you should skip this month.
