Hi everyone - I really need your amazing advice…
My OH’s sperm sample results were great but we did the DNA frag test which came back high (there was a trial at our clinic). Our consultant told us to make lifestyle changes for 3 months and take impryl before our next round - which would be ICSI.
I had surgery last week to remove a large dermoid cyst and was told to ring them after that to get dates in the diary. I rang this morning to be told “oh I thought if you were having ICSI you could start on your next period” and gave me the impression it was either ICSI or lifestyle changes for 3 months.
I’m about to turn 39 and have a low egg count so I was naturally worried about waiting 3 months but wanted to do everything we could for this round and it wasn’t positioned as “either” “or” during the results call.
Is it worth waiting 3 months if we are doing ICSI? Or should we crack on with ICSI right away?
I was worried about “lifestyle changes” as he exercises, eats lots of veggies, only drinks at the weekend etc so I wasn’t convinced that the changes we have implemented would be enough to change anything. We have added more fruit to his diet, no alcohol, no heated seats in the car etc and more supplements.
Help please xx
