I was wondering if anyone knew if a sperm count could go down even while on Clomid if we had had intercourse more often in those 3 months. We didn't have intercourse for 5 days before his count, however. I've just been trying to rack my brain to figure out why in the world his count would have gone down 5 mil!

" you know???
now i really think that its all about their body health not only about the sperm and meds.. sometimes the counts come back really normal and some other times they are really bad.. it happened to us.. the first time we did iui his cout was really low.. then we did 2 more and was perfect.. we moved to ivf and his count was low again.. now we are looking for a different dr and we'll see how it goes.. but i really think that if tehy are stressed out the sperm is highly affected... in this hard long and unpredictible journey we never know.. dont lose hope i saw a post from the doctor here saying that some people get pregnant with really low counts.. its just matter of time, i know its hard to be patient but we have to try ..
GOOD LUCK and i will PRAY for you.. "

" I agree! I think stress plays a big part in the whole numbers issue. We are in the 2ww of a FET cycle after a failed 1st IVF in March. Good luck, and I'll be praying too! "
