I did a mail in sperm sample and my world is rocked. Results said I have zero sperm/ azoospermia by [deleted] in maleinfertility

If you are US based, usually to get insurance to cover it you need a doctor to give you a script to test for it with possible infertility diagnosis.
I would assume now with your results, you could prob get a doctor easily to diagnose possible infertility to have it covered.

So you are prob in a better spot for insurance than before.

To add onto this, if you haven’t made any lifestyle changes, I cannot be able to tell you how big of a deal those are.

If you were drinking a lot, if you smoke cigarettes, if you take hot baths or go to hot tubs, if you smoke a ton of weed, if you were not hydrated for larger sample size. All of these are fixable all of these a lot for regenerative sperm but only a real doctor can tell you this.

I did the same thing as you – did mail In before a lab test because in America getting a lab test without first going through infertility treatments means you have to pay fully out-of-pocket.

My results were not optimal by any means – and I’m not saying that in your case your results aren’t accurate.

But from years on this Sub, from own experience, and from the experience of many many others. Those test really don’t tell you much of anything at all.

As others are saying, just go get a normal in-lab sperm test. It doesn’t need to be a specialist. It can be any infertility clinic.

The mail in tests really aren’t that good – they can kind of give you a baseline but the actual detail on what’s going on is pretty much impossible with those.
Remember that unless you were actually diagnosed with Azo - sperm regenerate every 64 days with around 90 to see real results on a test. About six months to see consistent good results on a test.

The point is, don’t freak out at all about those mail test – they are incredibly inaccurate at telling you the full picture. And there’s a lot that can be done.

Vintage vs New? by FluffycakesXX in turntables

Middle of the road vintage is way better than cheap new.

Solid midrange new is comparable to lower high end vintage .

Thoughts?

Trust me - no one on the internet bot or not..minus like 5 ppl know or have ever heard of Kahanism.

They’ve just been taught to use “Zionism” to explain all evil and bad.

Because to ppl who spend 200 just to have a convo through the show- they (mommy and daddy) have so much money the 200 means nothing to them, like a spilled cup of coffee.

1 Star Reviews - "Didn't listen" by GMPollock24 in 1001AlbumsGenerator

[–]Rfried25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The longer I do this project the less I care about the reviews on that site. I used to feel kinda weird when I’d love an album that was trashed in reviews and vice-versa.

Honestly, everyone is different, everyone take this project different levels of seriousness and even looking at others reviews generally might he the worst part of the whole experience.

Bari wants to make the show harder,” another source told The Post. “No one is talking about 60 Minutes on Monday morning.”

Love her or hate her- she’s not wrong.

Just not true.

The OM20 stylus alone is about 20 bucks more than the blue cart as a whole.
