Hi everyone, me and my husband has agreed that we are going to start trying to conceieve properly recently. We got married 8 months ago, and we are going to collect keys for our house and thought it's a good time to start our new life...
In the past, we also had unprotected sex (not regularly) for 3 years but never got pregnant.
We did some pre-conception checks in case anything was wrong.
Doctor told me I am perfectly healthy. So husband went for Semen Analysis and realized that his count and everything is normal, but only has 36% motility and 2% morphology.
1. Does that mean that we have very low chances of getting pregnant naturally??
2. Does IUI have high chances of pregnancy for us?? He's 26 and I'm 27.
3. Do supplements really help with his sperm quality? I read conflicting views online, some say sperm quality will never change, but some say their results improve greatly after eating certain supplements and changing their lifestyles for 2-3months.
4. Do we have to do IVF?? I read so many scary experiences of IVF, like we females have to get injections everyday to stop and restart our hormones and reproductive system. With menopause-like symptons.. I cannot imagine going through all that.
Hope you guys can let me know what you think. Our financial situation is not good with all the housing expenses coming up and the last thing we need is to spend thousands on conceiving!!!
Would appreciate your responses, thank you!!!
