Hi Gals,
I really want your advice and support. We've been ttc for 8 months and just this month hubby got a s/a. His doc called him today and told him that his semen took 4 hours instead of a half hour to liquefy!!! The doc didn't tell him why this is happening and just said to drop by and pic up medicine. I don't know what medicine he will give him and have in fact been waiting until tomorrow to test.
Guess I have my answer- I won't be pregnant this month :-( May sound like no biggie, but this month my doc had discovered that my ovary was ovulating TWO eggs! So we were particularly excited.
Disappointment aside, I'm concerned about hubby. I did some online research and read stuff about prostate infections and I'm now worried about him. Has anyone had experience in sperm liquification problems or like it!
So eager to hear from anyone!
Thanks,
Layla

Hey Layla,
As far as I know liquification is one of the easy fixes.
I am sure his doctor can help it!
I have read about using Mucinex or other similar cold medicines to loosen up semen. The doctor must have even a better way to improve it.
I am sure it's gonna be fine!
My fingers are still crossed for your Two Eggie cycle! Chins up, Girl!!!
Smiles,
erika
PS: actually, I am here, patiently waiting for a call about our S/A yesterday. Eeek!
Hi Erika, thanks for taking the time to give such a kind response. On the spectrum of things that could go wrong with semen, this doesn't seem so serious. It's just that this came while I'm so close to testing/waiting for AF, that I feel like it's a sure "not pregnant" for this cycle, and it really probably is.
Hope your semen analysis comes back good!
Layla
