Low morphology

[HopefulMo20]

Hello!

My partner has low sperm morphology at 2% (should be 4% or above) , has anyone conceived successfully in similar circumstances? Positive stories would be greatly appreciated!

@Crinkledbeetroot that is very ture, just can't seem to get one to go where it needs to go!

@AutumnDays90 sorry about your mmc 😔 unfortunately we are not able to have sex every day or twice within the hour (how did you do this?! It is exhausting 🤣) glad it seemed to work for you!

@SunnySideUp2020 is the Spermotrend something you can buy or is it prescribed? My gp advised to just dtd a few times a week , we aim for every other or every other other day.

Thank you for all your stories, it is really appreciated x

The twice in an hour was definitely not usual for us haha! Nor even is everyday tbh! It was just interesting to me when I read a few articles stating the supposed increased chances for subfertile men.

If IVF is an option I would keep it in mind, if we had the money for another few rounds that is the route we would take.

@HopefulMo20 i don't think it's on prescription.

Here is the supplement

We just bought it from some pharmacies but we are outside of the uk.

@SunnySideUp2020 thank you, will take a look!

@AutumnDays90 yes keeping IVF in mind although we wouldn't be entitled to a round on the NHS as dp already has children and I don't think we can afford the cost to go private unfortunately.

@HopefulMo20 hi hun, the referral through the NHS for IVF is based on whether the mum to be currently has children of her own. Women have a maternal instinct and the fathers paternal instinct is no where near as strong so it doesn't matter if he currently has children as in these circumstances it's always the women's needs that are considered.

Long story short.. you should get referred for IVF on the NHS because you have no DC.

@MummyT13 That's interesting, my gp basically said I wouldn't be considered due to dp already having children, I'd only be considered if I am the reason we can't get pregnant. The rules where I live seem quite strict!

@HopefulMo20, I know this thread is dead, but I'm just after getting news that my husband's morphology is 1%. Like you, everything else looks great. I'm combing for success stories, as I am feeling so low after already TTC for a year. Doc has advised that IVF may be the best route. I am wondering if his SA came back with better results second time around, and perhaps if you have had any success in the meantime? Clutching at straws here 😔

@ali2021 hello! I can't remember if dps results were better and I'm not sure where they are, sorry. Been ttc since October 2019.... nothing. Absaloutly nothing. My dp had to have a vasectomy reversal hence the low count and I've also been diagnosed with Endometriosis and have treatment for that. I didn't think we would be here nearly 3 years later but here we are. I don't think about t anymore, don't feel there's any point. Sorry I couldn't give you a more positive story. Wishing you all the best
