Also my original posts on here can be found, as well as my sperm count lab analysis

I'm not sure you're aware, but I was on a 500 MG dose of test for the longest. Got my sperm count tested and was at 2 million total sperm which is next to nothing. The full panel of testing wasn't even completed. I cut my dose in half to 250 mgs a week, and added 1666 IU'S of HCG everyday...

I too was in the same boat as you. Every fertility doc wanted me off testosterone. I scoured the net, even posted here looking for help, which many did on research articles that showed you don't have to come off of trt to conceive. My fertility clinic in Chicago allowed me to stay on. He put me...

Congratulations as well.

Just an update. We're 5 weeks pregnant!!!!

I don't think your fully reading my posts. We are trying. Haven't just yet my friend.

I'm still on testosterone. 250 mgs a week. If you're asking me. Also, while on testosterone, I went from 2million total speem count to 91 million total. My lab results are attached

Yes. I supplement with anastrozole as well to control my estrogen, remember I'm still injecting 250 mgs of testosterone a week as well. The only negative side effect and that I don't know why, is my penis gets real sensitive. It's hard to last during sex.

There's hope! I had 2 million total. In fact they couldn't even complete the analysis my sample was too small. 5 months later I'm at 91 million as my attached seven analysis shows. Hcg works.

Have you done a semen analysis prior to starting hcg?

That's a question better left to the experts. All I can tell you is what worked for me. I used anastrozole, 1/4 of a tab twice a week to keep my estrogen lower.

I'd do a sperm analysis in a few months to see where you are at before adding anything. What's your fertility doc saying?

I used hcg at 1666 ius xtimes a week to everyday while on 250 mgs of testosterone cypionate a week. Didn't even need fsh. Now it's just a waiting game to see if she gets pregnant. If not we will further explore her to see if any issues. Why not try high doses of hcg, which is cheap,vs fsh? Then...

Met with our fertility doc today and he says there is nothing needed from him. I'm Fertile! This journey, albeit not that long( 5 months) has been stressful. Everywhere I went, everything I read was that I had to come off of trt. I'm living proof, you don't have to. I thought we would stsrt...

Did you check? My insurance has a separate side for infertility. WIN, Womens infertility network. Ironic, as I'm a man. But so far they have been great. They've covered 24 vials of Hcg, and said they'd approve FSH
