Pregnancy, To late for us?

[elsa1971]

I have 42 and my husband 40 years old, have 3 daughters
From past marriage, but my husband never had children.
In the past he was my first boyfriend and I was his first girlfriend
That's why, now we are together at last that we
Would love to have our own child...we did tests and I'm starting
Menopause and his sperm count was 5% positives.
My doctor didn't show any help saying that our case was almost
Hopeless. Could we get any other help ei; medication, etc...?
Thanks for your help

See a specialist.  A GP will not be helpful in this situation.  I'll bet you're not even approaching menopause.  Lots of women get preggers at 42, especially if they have had a child before.  Ask for a referral, either from your GP or your ob-gyn, to a fertility specialist.

All tests we did was at our GP, blood and sperm count, and the results came from the hospital were the samples were done, so still not to go really, should my GP send us to a specialist?

You are certain you are starting menopause?  42 seems pretty young for that.  Did a reproductive endocrinologist determine this, or your ob-gyn?  Have your records sent to a fertility specialist (RE) right away and get some advice.
