New to TRT worried about Sperm counts

[gbrice75]

I will be getting a semen analysis done in about 3 weeks. I started TRT 7 weeks ago (sperm count was normal prior) and am monitoring to see if levels decline, and by how much. If it seems to drastic, i'm coming off TRT until we have another kid (thank God for my first!!). Subscribed.

called to check insurance coverage. Doesn't sound like they will cover the bank. Im going to the doctor tomorrow and asking for hcg with the trt. I found a place that freezes locally so ill head there prior to receiving the injections. Im curious to see your results gbrice

Basically all you do is go and make a "deposite" at the bank.

They collect all the good swimmers and put them into a vial for freezing.

I had a low sperm count before going on TRT, so I had to make 3 trips
to the bank before I had enough fill the vial.

Make sure you check with the sperm bank for recommendations before you go make a deposit.
I know that you have refrain from sexual intercourse for at least 48 hours before making a deposit.
This also includes masturbation.

They also may have certain rules about which soaps you use, some soaps may kill the sperm if it comes in contact.



Also, I have been reading a lot about how alcohol can affect fertility for men and women.
Even so much as one glass a day.

The news is not all bad, though – the upside is that the harmful effects of alcohol can be reversed
just by abstaining from alcohol — ideally for the 120 days it takes to form healthy sperm and
mature a healthy egg as well as throughout conception attempts, pregnancy and lactation.

This is the surest way to optimize your natural fertility for a lively, natural conception and/or
dramatically increase your odds of a healthy pregnancy through IVF (if necessary).

gb - Don't rush it my friend; we've seen many men here who are on TRT prescribed protocols and they have gotten their wives prego.

Good to get the count for sure but you may be surprised to see it hasn't declined a great deal.

I forgot, are you taking HCG as well...please say "yes"!!!
