At the beginning, we thought we already knew what the problem was.
Before starting anything, I had been told that I might have hydrosalpinx. It stayed in our minds as the reason things weren’t working.
So when we went for another check, we expected to confirm it.
But this time, nothing showed up.
There was no sign of hydrosalpinx.
Instead, something else came up.
The focus shifted to my husband’s side. The results showed what was described as a triple defect — morphology was close to completely abnormal, motility was lower than expected, and the count wasn’t high.
It wasn’t what we had been preparing ourselves for.
We tried to do something about it first. He was given profortil and took it for a few months. We hoped it might improve things.
But when we checked again, the numbers didn’t really move in the direction we expected. Some parts even looked lower.
At that point, we had to decide what to do next.
We asked about options, and ICSI was suggested as a way to proceed.
The way it was explained helped us understand what the next step could be, but it still felt like a decision we had to make ourselves.
So we went ahead with it.
Not because everything was clear,
but because this was the direction we had in front of us.
If this feels familiar,
and you’re not sure what to do next,
