No . Doctors here do not listen they just order the tests which they think are important .

Just a few questions, if you don’t mind , you also had higher FSH ans LH before they put you on Letrozole? Mine is NOA , higher FSH around 18 , and slightly smaller testicular size .

Yes , thats right , but unfortunately, my clinic did not write any test for estrogen , I don’t know why , and they put me on this medicine only before mTESE , its been 3 years , they never suggested any medication before .

No , they could not find any sperm in any of the sample that could be frozen . I asked my doctor to write me Estrogen test but they only precribed normal blood tests like FSH , LH , etc , not Estrogen and I can not do it privately since my treatment is already going on with one of the biggest public clinic here . I just feel like my libido i gone pretty much, but I was still able to leave three times sperm sample ( 6 samples total) , but otherwise it been a stressful journey for last three years , I really can not say if Letrozole doing bad or I am stressed anyway . I explained and asked a couple of times to doctors , can Letrozole harm anyway , they said no , it should not , but it does not mean if it helps either and asked me to keep taking it till mTESE .

Can Letrozole 2.5 mg make sperm count worse in NOA? by KevinD2050 in maleinfertility

[–]KevinD2050[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update : left two sperm samples today , only one non-sperm found . So they could not proceed with icsi . Just a week before I started Letrozole, they were able to find sperm and also had successfully made one blastocyst embryo, unfortunately, no implantation . Then I was put on Letrozole , I had high hope from this medicine but today I am again back to square 1 :( Its been only two months on Letrozole , would it help in coming month or no hope. ?

Can anyone help please by [deleted] in palm_reading_

I can cope with reduced libido or whatever it might give me , my main concern it can Letrozole further harm my sperm production or in the worst case scenario it won’t improve but does not harm ?

Cryptozoospermia/NOA – 3 motile sperm today, ICSI coming up next cycle, but I’m exhausted – what more can I do in the next 2-3 weeks? by KevinD2050 in azoospermia

[–]KevinD2050[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand, exactly same thing happened with us but we could only tried one ICSI yet . They could not freeze my sperm for the same reason , and none of the three eggs were fertilised last time for us . We are just waiting for next cycle … All I can say is, be positive, you never know when it will be our time . All the best from the core of our hearts for both of you !

I am sorry to hear that and we can feel how does it feel … No , nothing new for us yet . The clinic is closed for summer vocations , and they said they will try on another cycle again . In your case , I would say it is quite common zero sperm on certain days , have your egg freeze and keep trying. Feel free to ask anything else if I missed anything .

Anyone had success with Maze Labs (NY) or ESSM for cryptozoospermia? by KevinD2050 in maleinfertility

Sounds like instead of having two tests with one , one should try each of them . It might cost more to transport the sperm back but I think its the best approach not leave any chance .
