Dear Jenny
WElcome to the boards. You'll find it a wonderful place to share information, to cry on someone's cybershoulder or just a laugh - it's very eclectic around here.
We are also a male factor problem due to Hodgkin's when
DH was a teenager. We had a SA too that came back negative and then went for a biopsy to check for sperm "in loco"- small cuts made in the testis to look for swimmers. They also collected tissue samples to analyse. Unfortunatly it was negative too. If they had found any sperm then we would go for ICSI.
At our clinic the normal procedure would be to have the biopsy done to coincide with egg retrieval, perform ICSI and then implantation.
Not really sure about your other questions but i'm sure anyone will get back to you real soon.
Id there's anything you need, just ask!
A hug
Rita
