SA results are in

Jason’s results are in, and from what they said, they are “ok.” Not great, but not bad either. I’m getting the full print out tomorrow at my CD1/2 (I’m spotting now so could be full flow tonight or it could be tomorrow) ultrasound, so can report more then. I was actually in the bathroom when she called (I’ve been carrying my cell around with me everywhere I go to not miss the call) and couldn’t get much info written down. (You can laugh at me – I was smart enough to carry my cell and a pen around, but no paper. So my hand has this written on it.)

Anyways, his count 319 million, but I don’t know if that was total, or per some measurement or what. Regardless she said that was good.

There were 56% that were moving. She said that normal is between 40 and 95%, but I’ve been reading online (google is a bad thing) that normal is more like over 50 or 60% (from resolve.org and webmd) so it seems like he’s on the low end of normal for that.

Only 29.5% of them had normal shape. She said that normal is 30-100% so he is obviously on the low end of that. She said that it wasn’t enough to move straight to other options – if it was any lower they’d be more concerned.

So I don’t know what to think really. I mean, he falls into the “ok” part, but seems to be on the low end, so even though they say not to be worried, I am a little bit. (Is anyone actually surprised by that?)

I have an ultrasound tomorrow to see if there are any cysts, and we’ll make a plan for this cycle. Kim is talking to my RE today about whether or not we’ll increase the Clomid, and if we should do the HSG this cycle. Tentatively the plan is Clomid again and then I’ll go in around CD12 or 13 to check the follies and possibly trigger. (We wanted to do that 3 months ago, but they found the cyst instead.)

So look for another update tomorrow ...
