Ladies, I don't know if this would help any of you, but...

I have wondered about my husband's being very fertile or not for a while since we have tried for so long to get pregnant, but because I did get pregnant and miscarry seven months ago, the doctor said he didn't want to do a S/A. My husband would have done one, knowing the ramifications from me if he didn't, but the good news is... we are doing IUI this month, and I talked with the doctor in private, and he said it is basically the same thing as an S/A because they take need the sample for insemination, and through the process "flush" the sperm to pick out the best ones. He said it is basically the same thing as an analysis because if his numbers are low or his swimmers aren't good, then they will be able to determine it at that time. So, I decided rather than push for an S/A we will do the IUI anyway, killing two birds with one stone (helping increase odds for myself and checking on my husband without making it be able what he may not have).
