Improved Morphology wanting to do IUI (4% Strict)

Hello ALL,
My wife and I have been TTC for as long as I can remember.  We sought out a local fertility doc who eventually pointed fingers my way.  My wife passed all the required testing with flying colors.  I on the other hand failed a few :(  Pituitary checked out ok, no varicosiles, testicular ultrisound was good.  In 2009 SA volume was 2.0, Total Count 50 Million, Motility was 77% and Morphology was at a sad 1%...  After a number of rounds trying Clomid (due to low testosterone).  All it did was regulate the testosterone, Morphology stayed the same.  I lost my job in Aug 2009 so we had to put a hault to our journey until this past month.  I recently lost about 60lbs and am taking all my vitamins on a schedule.  Good thing is my Volume came back at 2.2, Total count was 100 Million, Motility at 50% and Morphology went up to 4%.  I will continue to work on my weight and take my vitamins every day...  Is there any chance at an IUI with these numbers?  I am a bit hopeful and excited to see what the future could hold for us.... I REALLLLLLY want to make our dreams come true

Thanks for giving me some hope...  We planned a vacation this next month and will be starting tests in August - Very Excited!  How many IUI's did you do?  Was Morphology the only issue?

Hi, my husband and I had a successful IUI with 1% morphology, so it very well could work with your numbers.  

Good Luck!

Just in case your not on it, also try adding macca to your suppliments, it helps with volume and mobility :)
