Ask The Egg Whisperer with Dr. Aimee (When should we ask for a sperm DNA fragmentation test? )

Ask the Egg Whisperer is one of my favorite times each week! I love getting to answer your questions. In this episode, Maria writes in to ask about the sperm DNA fragmentation test. “When should we ask for a sperm DNA fragmentation test?
We had our first (failed) IUI in September and during it, my husband’s semen analysis was significantly lower than the analysis we had done pre-treatment (which was done at a different lab).
He is now undergoing more testing with a urologist including an ultrasound, a physical exam, and a repeat semen analysis. The outcome of current testing would either mean we try more IUIs or move on to IVF.”

Tune in to hear what I have to say about when you should ask for a sperm DNA fragmentation test (along with the answers to 19 other great questions)!

Hello Dr Aimee, really feel I need to tell women who are suffering from thin endometrial linning this, when doctors gave me lupron my linning was thin as 6 or 7, and my FET got cancelled and felt horrible, but since I am proactive and in tune with my body, I keep saying to the clinic it’s lupron, the cycle after we used femara tablets coz this other dr suggested this, and my god the linning was beautiful 9 mm day 9 with beautiful triliminar linning ... I also took vitamin E and aspirin . I really don’t know why some clinics just keep giving us unnecessary medicine ! I don’t have endometriosis

I had 2 fibroids inside my uterine cavity, they were removed thru my vagina. It’s been a year and I haven’t be able to get pregnant. I used to get pregnant very fast but lost them. After the surgery I was dry for months, no CM . How long it will take for my uterus to heal?
