thank you, this is probally a bit of a silly thought but its my oh's thought, beacuse im taking clomiphene could this result in a faint line on the test

Had some good news today. Went for my cd3 bloods, which was not as unpleasant as I thought, and DH rang and spoke to the doc to get a better explaination of his SA result.

So it turns out that although his overall count is on the low side, the morphology and motility of his little guys is normal, so I'm feeling quite positive that we can sort that out - he's got multivits and extra zinc and l-arginine, and I had a serious talk with him about giving up alcohol (whether he'll manage that I'm not sure - cutting down is one thing, giving up altogether is another!)

Hello to CAFCGirl and good luck to Nichart!

Yes. But only because it is a fertility drug and therefore it is more likely that you are pregnant if you've been taking it

Clomiphene isn't one of the drugs which leads to false positives. Its only the ones which are used in IVF to trigger the egg to be released which do. If you buy a branded test to use in the morning, this should be stated clearly on the instructions.

Good luck

Good news about the sperm result AnnieM, youll soon up the numbers, and to tbh I think the quality is more important that the quality - you could have 100 million, but if they cant swim the right way and last the distance, you might as well not have any!!!!

Sounds like good news, Nichart - obviously finding this thread on the 22nd January has changed your luck!!! Hope you get another positive result tomorrow.

Congratulations on BFP Nicki!!!!! And nichart - fingers crossed for you!

For those who are "putting" OH on supplements - when we had our first chat with GP, he mentioned, that there are some successful studies (although small ones), that say vit C, E and selenium increase the quality of little swimmers. Well, I made sure the same night that the ones my OH is taking have plenty of all these...
