infertility and IVF

[cvdj3913]

So my husband and I have tried getting pregnant for about a year and recently went to an infertility dr. I was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2012 and thought that was pretty much the reason we haven't conceived, but when my husband got tested he had a low sperm count both times he was tested. So my dr. recommended we try ivf but was wondering is there any way to boost his sperm count, like a different diet or any other remedies? I am going to get a laparoscopy to laser off some of the endo., I'm really wanting to try and do this the natural way but don't want to stress myself out if it most likely won't work.

Check at your chemist for vitamins designed to help improve sperm quality. Change his diet to high protein, low sugar, healthy fats etc. No smoking, no drinking beer (beer has estrogen in it, female hormones, and does not help his body, makes it think it's female).
It takes up to 3 months to produce new sperm so he'll need to make changes now and stick to them and regularly (min 2 times a week) relieve himself or have sex then after 3 months go back for another sperm test, then you'll get a true result as to whether his sperm can be improved. Good luck.

Made an appointment too see a urology for your husband.  My husband had a reversal vasectomy.  The reversal was a success but his SA was not good.  Low sperm count and zero motility.  The doc put him on Clomid.  Yes Clomid.  It takes a few tries to get the right dosage.  The last 2 SA came back good.  I am still not pregnant.  Was diagnosed under the unexplained infertility.  Waiting on my insurance to give the go ahead  to see a specialist soon.  Good luck to you.

Have him Wear boxers or no underwear at night. Give it a little more time. My mom just recently got the ivf and she was in alot of stress and boy oh boy was her emotions all around the world. It would be alot of work too. So i know what you mean.
