impatiently waiting!

Hopesanddreams1987 profile image

My husband and I are still awaiting his fsh, testosterone, cystic fibrosis and chromosomal blood test results to find out what’s potentially causing his lack of sperm. Then we’re going to go through ICSI, but of course in the hope they’re able to detect some sperm once they’ve extracted directly from his testicles.

I’m getting so impatient now and questioning lots of things including my own fertility. My AMH is low for my age (32) at 9.7 & I had 11 follicles on my left ovary and 8 on the right. Has anyone else here gone on to successfully conceive with similar results as mine?

Thank you 🙂

I have 3 follicles so it sounds like you have a great number. All the waiting is very hard. Hang on in there. Injections, scans and bloods are just around the corner x

Thank you Hidden for your reply. I feel bad that I’ve made a fuss about what I thought was quite a small number of follicles... Wishing you the best of luck on whatever fertility journey you’re going through and wishing for a positive outcome for you 😊 xx

Thank you. I am currently 28 weeks pregnant. Been a long journey but hopefully one of the happy endings soon.

Never feel bad for any posts on here. We are all here for each other and it is nice to have reassurance sometimes. Wishing you all the best for your round xx

Hey I replied to your last one. My husband has zero count too, CF carrier. We are waiting on NHS and the wait is a killer. I went for my first CBT session today to try and work through my fears and anxieties and I’m hoping it’s going to help. Fingers crossed you get some answers soon in the meantime don’t forget to look after you ❤️ xx

I’m so sorry you have such a wait for your treatment. The waiting around is so tough, I feel for you both. That’s great you’ve gone for CBT, I am open to this as well but at the moment, I find chatting to you all on here & a select few close family/friends is my remedy at the moment. I’m sure things will get a lot tougher soon enough though.

Keep strong and thank you 😊 Xx
