Question re S/A
I have a quick question. H had his S/A done last week (yay), and the Dr. called with the results today.
We don't have the official #'s, those are being mailed to us - the dr. said the count and motility were normal but he mentioned that the shapes were a 'little abnormal' then said that's not really a problem.
I guess I'll wait until we get the official #s in the mail, but I'm more concerned about the abnormal shape part....
Anyone else here know anything or have any experience with this?

Yes, the dr was a urologist, and my H was at work when he called, so my H just told me real quickly over IM this. He'll give me full details on what the dr said when I get home and I guess once we get the physical results with the #s, my H can call him back with our questions. Without the numbers, we won't really know what to ask, but those should come by tomorrow/Wednesday the latest.
But yea, does anyone know if abnormal shapes can cause issues? I imagine if the dr was concerned by that, he would have told my H, but he didn't seem to think this was such a big deal. We shall see, but aside from that, the counts and everything else are normal, so I guess the next logical step would be to move onto testing for me....
Yea, I'm not really expecting a whole lot from the urologist in that department, but it was more important to just get the numbers, see what they are before determining what the next steps are going to be. Neither of our insurance has any coverage for infertility, but luckily his covers the testing for him which was important to at least rule him out first.
Now the tricky part is going to be figuring out the testing for me since my gyn is useless and extremely unhelpful. Basically, she just does a pap, sends you on your merry way, then collects her $ from the insurance. No blood work, no other testing, absolutely nothing. She clearly hasn't read Taking Charge Of Your Fertility either, otherwise she would have mentioned that not every woman has a 28 day cycle. Definitely switching doctors. pfffft.
Assuming the results went out in the mail today, we should be getting them tomorrow or Wednesday. Mail gets delivered pretty quickly around here
