Hi everyone.

Thanks for all of your comments and support...we are still having some trouble with this and trying to relax this weekend.
The results we got showed that the volume was 1.0 L when 2.0 L is normal. Sperm count was 14 million when 20 million is normal. Motility is 27%. Morphology is 70%. There were also white blood cells in his semen.
They referred us to a specialist (I didn't think I could take any more Drs) and we have another SA to do within two weeks. I don't even know that we can afford going to the infertility urologist at this point...depending on how the diagnosis is written up, we may not be able to pay cash for the appointment. Our first urologist wrote up the diagnosis as atrophy to the testes. We are trying to figure out if we are going to go to the appointment or not.
I don't understand. My husband has never smoked, he doesn't drink or anything. He does have persistent acid reflux and takes zantac on a regular basis and he has high cholesterol...which he refuses to take medicine for. Could these be causes?
I was thinking of buying a ovwatch to try and see if that would help to get me pregnant..but I don't feel hopeful about anything right now.
I would love some recommendations...herbal things...any recommendations that might increase sperm count. My husband doesn't work out much either....will that help? I don't know anything right now....
We will probably look into supplements and see if that might help...however, I'm not encouraged with the morphology. I thought we could deal with the count being low, but this is more than we ever expected.
I hope to have a better outlook by Monday...but we'll see how I'm feeling..thank you for all of your support...
