A Visit to the Urologist

As per advice of my OB-Gyne, we went to see the urologist today to ask for an opinion on DH’s semen analysis.

This has been our third time to visit the urologist’s clinic as he was not around during our first appointment and the second time, we just felt lazy to go there.

So this time, DH finally got a break from work and we went there at almost 6 pm. Glad to find out that we can still be accommodated. We were last on the list.




“Do you smoke?”, “Do you drink?”. . . goes the questions. DH smoked at times but when i told him that he’s got to stop smoking as soon as we start the fertility treatment, he agreed however.

He had chills and canker sores for a week – probably his withdrawal symptoms.

The urologist went on for another round of questioning.

“Have you impregnated a woman before?”

I smiled. Of course, the doc sought permission to ask the question. DH answered ‘No’.

After a few physical check-up on DH, he suggested ultrasound for him as well as another semen analysis after 3 months intake of a vitamin that can help with the sperm count.

In conclusion, he said DH can still have a baby. Although the chances may not be as high as those with hundreds of millions of sperm, but he still have a chance.

We went home with smiles in our faces. 300px-Smiley.svg
