No sperm found in test result

[mycosyspacexx]

I have just had the dreaded call that my partner has ‘no sperm’. It was the first test and we’ve been told to wait 8 weeks for the next one. As i’m sure you can imagine, we’re freaking out! Has anyone experienced this & got anny advise?! Anything i should push for in the meantime? 8 weeks is so long!

We are in a similar situation so I would like some advice too. They found 1 sperm that was just twitching in his sample and was told 8 weeks for second sample also we have booked a private scan to check for blockages and a blood test as this could be a possibility ultrasound direct do a scan and bloods for £300

We’re in a similar situation but low sperm count and thats after 5 tests now over several months. As soon as we got the first test results the GP said get another test because that will give a clearer picture as things can change.

We pushed for a hormone test to check testosterone and FSH levels and an ultrasound scan to check if there were any issues with a potential varicocele etc. Sadly no obvious issues were found. We’re now seeing a urologist privately but doing as many tests for hormones etc. as we could either through NHS or through cheaper private clinics was certainly worth it before seeing the urologist as it meant they had more information before the consultation and overall it works out a lot cheaper.

Another issue that can cause problems is an underlying infection, but I’m not sure what test is out there to test for this.

We’ve also changed lots of lifestyle things like loose underwear, lots of antioxidant supplements, Mediterranean diet etc. Your probably already know about this but there’s a good chapter in “it starts with the egg” about sperm health as well.

But too be honest I am still pretty clueless as to why the results are as they are and what can be done so Il keep an eye out on this thread for anyone who can give any more answers.
