We have just had results back of low motility and I am just wondering where we go from here. Has anyone had this and what did you do?

Lifestyle changes. If those aren't successful, they generally recommend icsi.

We've just undergone icsi and have five embryos in the freezer Smile Lifestyle changes improved my partners motility but not to the extent that we could easily fall pregnant naturally, we were referred for fertility treatment and they decided icsi was for us.

Still told that there is a chance we could conceive naturally though after 3 years of trying it becomes upsetting and stressful for both

Good luck, any questions I'll happily answer :) xx

Thank you for the info! Is icsi expensive?

@IhopeyoulikeNavantoo I'm NHS Funded, not sure how expensive it would be to go private

For icsi, I'd budget 7-10 grand, if not using an nhs cycle. Check out some local clinics, they often have an approx price list.
