Sperm Count: Help Please
| Fri, 10-17-2003 - 11:56am |
Does anyone here have a spouse with low sperm count? I ask beacuse, and this is probably TMI, my husband and I have been trying to have sex every other day throughout my cycle, which is great, but i"ve noticed that the first day htere is a lot of sperm, the second time a little less, and then it seems to be at that lower level. Could the decrease be a sign of low sperm count? I'm wondering because TCOYF says to wait longer to have sex if the sperm count is low and I'm trying to decide if we should space it out....

Well....I do not have this similar issue, but wanted to let you know that semen and sperm are 2 different things. There is no way that you can tell visually what your DH's sperm count is. What you may be seeing is the quantity of semen that he is releasing- this does not reflect his sperm count. The only way to know what his sperm count is is to have a semen analysis done at your Drs. Make sure he his drinking lots of water- not too much caffeine and pop him some antioxidants(vitamins like C, E, a little zinc)
HTH~ GL to you! BDing every other day should be just fine for you.
