Re: Any success stories with only male factor?
We didn't have male factor, our IF issues were all with my PCOS.
However, I have a friend who had male factor issues. She's now pregnant with twins after 1 round of IVF.
It can happen. Good luck!

Re: Any success stories with only male factor?
DH has male factor and I have PCOS. IVF was the only thing that worked for us- with ICSI. We have a DS and 2 on the way!

My husband literally had a zero sperm count and had to have the sperm surgically removed. I also have PCOS and we are currently expecting twins at the end of March.

Re: Any success stories with only male factor?
We were male factor only. DS was from our first fresh IVF cycle and DD was from our 4th FET cycle (from the first IVF cycle). Good luck

Re: Any success stories with only male factor?
DH had borderline everything but his morphology was horrible!! (1%) after taking fertilaid and pycnogenol for a few months his morphology went up to 31% and everything went up slightly as well. We wound up getting pregnant on my second round of IUI. I have irregular cycles so I was on femara to regulate my ovulation so we knew when to time the IUI's
Here's a post about DH numbers http://lifamilies.com/chat/topic.aspx?ID=496815&Highlight=

Re: Any success stories with only male factor?
We had male factor IF and my cycles were a little long.
1st Pregnancy (singleton) conceived with an IUI and clomid.
2nd Pregancy (twins) conceived with injectibles and an IUI.
3rd Pregnancy was a suprise. We got pregnant naturally. We didn't think we could so we were not carefull at all. However we are truly blessed to have our DD.

I wish it were me... that'd be an awesome photo to have!  I never saw anything clear like that before, but friends of mine have seen foot/handprints on bellies. This one I just found online

Re: Any success stories with only male factor?
We dealt with male factor IF. Did 4 unsuccessful IUIs, then moved on to IVF with ICSI.
DD was born after our 2nd IVF, the first round was a bust.

Re: Any success stories with only male factor?
We had our son naturally and then had trouble getting pregnant with #2. We did all the testing, everything with me came up fine. My husband had low morphology and slightly low volume. We got pregnant with my daughter on our first round of IVF. I am now pregnant with #3. This pregnancy happened naturally. HTH!
