me and wifey trying..

[redsquirrel]

been trying to have another little one for about a little over a year now.
she been though all the doctors and all that shit. everything is fine with her. which im very happy about.
now its my turn pretty much to see whats going on with my body.
blood work all ways comes out fine. except this time.
i told my doc. what was going on and what tests i wanted to start off with.
which was tsh, total test, estrogen, and total blood work.
everything is normal except my estrogen is high 157.2 pg/ml. normal would be 40.0-115.0 pg/ml.
total test is in range but low 274
241-827ng/dl would be the range
i all ways get a copy of my blood work sent to my house. im gonna call him on monday to set up another app.
what should i expect now? what do you guys think he'll test for now? sperm count? refer a specialist? im alittle worried about this.
i feel pretty good still making gains.
havent ran anything in about 2 1/2 years even after that my tast levels were allways around 600.

You really need to decide what you want to do right now. I had to make a similar choice, and sacrifice my body for awhile for the sake of having a child.

If your wife is fine, I'm having a real hard time figuring out why your Dr would do a blood work up prior to getting a sperm specimen. Blood work and estrogen levels are all fine and dandy, but that's not going to tell you why your wife isn't pregnant yet. It's not just sperm count that's important. The sperm maturity. You could have a great sperm count, and your sperm not be mature. Again, blood work has almost nothing to do with determining if anything is wrong with your swimmers. You need to have your sperm tested. Forget about the blood work.

3 weeks? Wow...that's a long time. All we had to do was schedule the sample to be brought in...I think we did it within a couple of days.

I was thinking more about this last night. And, when we were trying to figure out what was wrong w/ us, I was the one who had to go for several blood work ups. My husband didn't go for any blood work. All he did was submit his sample, and we went from there....Regardless of if you are waiting to see the specialist, you can get your sample tested before your appt. That way, your doctor will have the results for your appointment, and be able to offer a plan
