So I sit here having just returned from the hospital following a D&C at 9weeks.
We found out I was pregnant just before my husband was diagnosed with Lymphoma (in remission already!!) We did manage to bank sperm before treatment started but only two ‘pots’. They wrote to us to confirm the sperm was of good health and had all been frozen.
As this is my fourth miscarriage and we no longer have the option to try again my wonderful consultant has referred us to chat to the IVF consultant at our local hospital about next steps.
Do you think IUI could be an option for us or do you think that would be risky with not much sperm? I’m not sure if they would have to defrost the whole sample all at once.
Does anyone else have a similar experience? I am hoping they will be sympathetic to our situation. It’s very hard to suffer a miscarriage and not be able to think about trying again. I’m 33 and worry they will ask me to wait two years to see if his fertility returns. We don’t have any children and if we have to wait i will be 35/36 which I know increases the chances of miscarriage and we have already suffered four!
Thanks in advance.
