Re: At home SA
no, DH refused. I wasn't too crazy about having to keep it warm and drive it to the lab either...

Re: At home SA
do you mean an actual kit that you use at home? or producing a sample at home and bringing it to a doctor office?

i just did this... i was like a crazy person trying to get to the lab too... driving there, finding parking on upper level of the garage, navigating thru the hospital - omg it was hilarious  good thing we did though bc THERE is our prob
to the OP, do u mean an at home kit? Ive never heard of that so im not sure.

Re: At home SA
My DH was so nervous about the timing and transporting it. But it all worked out and he felt so much better after.

Yes they have ones that you can do yourself at home... Its like $40 and it says it is 97% accurate.
Those who went to the dr.... was is just as simple as calling, making an appointment? or was there a whole process?

This test only tells you if the count is low. There is so much more that goes into having normal sperm than just the count so NO I would not rely on this.

Re: At home SA
I def wouldnt rely on this if thats the case... dh's count was great, morphology is his prob and he has an appt w/a specislist.
How long have u bern trying? Do u have reason to think there's a prob? If so, your ob/gyn can give you an rx for him to go for a SA.

we have been trying for 8 months, have been timing everything perfectly, I know i am ovulating, pelvic sono looked good. We are 32 (me) and 33 (DH) So I don't want to wait too long to start looking into stuff
