I have been reading on this forum for about 8-12 months. My wife and have been seriously trying to have a child for about a year. She had some issues that have been sorted out and now we are trying to get my issues corrected.
Long story short I am in my late thirty's and have been on TRT for around 7 years. I had a semen test done about 6 months ago that came back zero. Since then I have been on TRT and HCG as prescribed by my doc. I have been looking for a solution to see if the HCG has had any positive effect on my zero count other than the doc ordering a traditional semen test.
I purchased a Yo home sperm test and used it this AM. Results came back positive however it only tests motility. I will most likely use the test again in a next few months and then maybe get a full semen test done to review the other metrics.
I thought this might be helpful for others that want to see if they are making any progress with their protocol. Maybe some one else can weigh in as I am not the expert on semen testing but for me to go from zero count to normal motility is very encouraging. It actually records your sperm and you can actually see a video them.
My wife is not pregnant yet but I think this is a really positive sign for both of us. I wanted to make others aware as I understand the stress and anxiety of the situation. Radd
