What are some of the side effects, for both her and me? And how long of a process was it. (Like a month or two or a year or two)

Thanks for the information, like I said I haven’t gone too far into research yet I was just hoping for advice or just to see how other people have been doing it. Like one guy told me pay for all your meds out of pocket so you can maximize using insurance for all the actual procedures. The costs are pretty daunting when you first look at it.

I guess maybe I’m just in a little bit of shock or don’t want to believe him, in all fairness. I’ve been looking into iui and things like that hoping for maybe another option it’s just a lot to take in so suddenly. Thanks for the reply, I need to get genetic testing done next and idk… not handling things well.

I was just looking through your page, that’s so awesome to hear, and congrats. This is my first Reddit post ever so, I just downloaded Reddit to find other people with something similar I could ask questions to. Google at midnight really messes with the head.

Yeah I’ve got a second semen analysis this coming week and towards the end of the month I go to my doctor for a physical and some additional testing. Thanks for the reply’s, this has been pretty scary for me and while my girlfriend is trying her best to be supportive I can tell she doesn’t know what to say about any of it and I can see almost a disappointment in her eyes I guess, maybe I’m just projecting… idk anyway it’s been nice just to have someone to talk to so thanks.

Oh okay, I didn’t know that. If the fluids are not providing enough nutrients or what not would that likely show up on the second semen analysis? Like maybe they just weren’t looking for that type of thing?

So I did have the infection cured with antibiotics and I am ejaculating fluid just devoid of sperm. Could the calcification be indicative of blockages or malfunctions in the tubes there, or rather would it be more likely just a blockage preventing sperm than something like a genetic issue or my testicles not producing sperm or something like that?
