Hello ladies,

Yesterday my husband and I got our fertility results back after 12months of unsuccessful TTC baby 1. (I’m 33 next week and husband is 35)

We both had braced ourselves for something being wrong with me so much so that I even said to my husband if there was something wrong I would give him an out. We are both healthy and fit but he’s much fitter than me.

My results came back completely clear but they found his sperm count low (13.3million) and morphology at 1%. Everything else was good.

The doctor is now referring us to a fertility clinic. I feel really sad, I never thought this is how we would have a family. I’m overwhelmed by all the possible treatments and have no idea how many goes we get. We could afford to pay for a few rounds ourselves but I’m also really scared about all the medical intervention and poking and prodding.

We are still trying naturally to conceive because it’s a reduced probability but not 0.

Does anyone else have any similar experiences? And good new stories?
