semen analysis iui/natural bfp

Hi my partner and i have been trying for a child but with no luck, i have pcos so dont ovulate, clomid got me ovulating but no bfp.  Next step was iui but on further examination my partners semen analysis had fallen drastically:-

Volume 5ml
Count 17mil
motility 20%
Morphology 3%

Because of the morphology we were told we were no longer egilible for iui

I was wondering is there definitely no chance on iui or natural bfp with this its just my partner has cf and the waiting list for ivf in really out of the question for us.

I would also have him take vitamin c and a multi vitamin for a few weeks and go back for a second SA. If it was fine before and then it went down maybe it's just stress or his diet. GL :)

If I were you, I would wait a week or two and then have your partner do another semen analysis. It's not uncommon to have an "off" day, and most REs suggest coming back for a second test if the first one is low or abnormal. Best of luck!
