View allI'm trying to understand the best sperm count and motility needed for a successful IUI. My husband's count is only 3 million and his motility is 20 before washing, but it goes up to 40 after. Is this considered good for IUI? We've already tried four times, so I'm wondering if there's still a chance for success on the fifth try.
For IUI success, optimal semen parameters are: count > 10 million, motility > 32%, and post-wash motility > 40%; your husband's count is low, but motility is adequate after washing, and while chances are lower, you may still consider a 5th IUI attempt.

I've been married for a year and a half and have been trying to conceive for the past nine months with treatment. I'm dealing with PCOD and I'm wondering if it's actually possible to conceive naturally with this condition. Any insights would really help me.
PCOD can make it more difficult to conceive, but it is still possible. Your doctor may prescribe you metformin to help regulate your menstrual cycle and ovulation. In addition, you may be prescribed clomiphene citrate to stimulate ovulation. Make sure to follow your doctor's recommendations for dosage and timing.

Recently found out I have a pineocytoma and a non-functional pituitary microadenoma on my MRI. I've been taking Eltroxin for thyroid issues for the past 15 years, and my recent hormone tests T3, T4, TSH, prolactin, ACTH, and growth hormone are all normal. Is there any way to treat these tumors with medication or do I need surgery?
