IUI with only 5mil sperm post wash

AT

Talk to me about low post wash sperm count with <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a>.

This is our second cycle doing <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> this round of TTC and his motility dropped pretty drastically since our last one. His post wash count in October was 14mil and on Saturday it was 5mil.

Has anyone conceived with such a low post wash sperm count? Our doctor said it was v unlikely this <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> would be successful because of it, so we’ve been feeling so down. He also suggested we start <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>. Should I even be hopeful this month? Help!
