Sperm Count Fail Again

So another test and another failure. This is now getting very boring, having had the operation over 7 months ago.

So another pot and another test coming up soon ...!

Seven Months on since the Vasectomy

So I guess since my vasectomy in November, the general aches and pains are over, but there still needs to be much care when manipulating the area operated on - and intercourse that is as frequent as every day does result in a dull ache for the next 18 or so hours - something that I've not experienced before.

I hope after a year or so that this does pass - as it is not that comfortable but in the longer term it should all be worth it - in the meantime it's still condoms and the rhythm method.  The former is an absolute bore - imagine going for a meal, ordering the meal - then being fed a large portion of cardboard before it's time to eat.  When it comes round to the main course - sans wellington boot it's all a bit of a chore.

The rhythm method is not a bundle of laughs - of course the risk of a 'bonus' pregnancy is always there - and should it happen we'd of course go through with it - despite the huge financial impact and inconvenience, we'd not be able to live with ourselves.  Although not legally viable till, what, 24 weeks, a life is a life - and part of our family.

Okay - that's a lot about me - hoping for a 'negative' result on the sperm front very soon, positive for the all clear.

If you fail, then try again

Another fail on my sperm samples ... a few dead ones found in my 2nd, and 3rd sample.  1st and 4th were clear, but I need two samples without and trace of sperm before I'm given the 'all clear'.

So 5th sample went off a couple of weeks ago and awaiting the results.

Hoping for some better news.
