DP was classed as havning MFI due to his low count and morphology (how they 'look') he went on Menevit at the advice of FA and after 3 months there was no change so we were advised our only option was to go on IVF waiting list. 7 weeks later (DP started taking a herbal supplement from most chemists called Herbal Y Extreme) we got a surprise in the form of DD. When she was 4 months old we started TTC again assuming another long wait, but one round of Clomid and along came DS.
Nothing wrong with me except for being a bit overweight.

Hey Booboo!
DH has great sperm when we conceived DD but not long after she was born he got a really bad case of the Chicken Pox and before TTC again he had another sperm count and it was very low and poor morphology, we were both gutted. It took 15 months and lots of rounds of clomiphene but we got preg again.
Do you have a copy of DH's results?? Do you wanna share numbers?? PM me if you like. :)

DH had a low sperm count (under 1 million). We ended up doing IVF with ICSI and have a gorgeous little girl.
