My husband was very recently diagnosed with KS. I have been doing a lot of research. We have been trying to conceive naturally (we did not know about the problem) for a year and had a chromosome analysis done to find the root of the problem. My husband has very low, very low motile sperm.

My one question is, if my husband has any good sperm so we can do In-Vitro Fertilization- will he pass it on to our child?

Thank you for any input.

" Hi I have Klinesfelter also and was diagnosed at 36. From what I understand and from research its not a hereditary condition. There is an association that can answer more questions if you would like more in depth answers. Its the American Association for Klinesfelter Syndrome Information and Support. The number is 1-888-466-KSIS. They are very helpful and understanding. I hope this helps. "
