Have any of your DHs had to get....
...a semen analysis done?
My doctor is sending DH just to be sure he's not the issue. He's not thrilled about it.
Just wondering if anyone else has had experience with this.
Men are so silly sometimes. If only they had to go to the OBGYN and put their feet in stirrups!!

Re: Have any of your DHs had to get....
Ohhhhhhhhhh baby you are so right!!!
I told DH he was gonna "go have fun with a cup" before I would do anything after a regular gyno exam.
He did it , against his will, and everything is OK. Then when I was ready to schedule the HSG I found out I was pregnant.
It's so not a big deal for the guy -- get him to do it!!! Show him some pics. of a speculum and a woman getting an exam and he may be more sympathetic and run to Quest for you!!

Oh yeah, if I even say the word stirup he makes a face. LOL
DH had one several years ago when he had a hernia and the doctor was impressed with his strong swimmers...DH even got to see them under the microscops. So, now he says he has bragging rights.

Thanks, both of you. He really has no choice in the matter. He HAS to!!

Re: Have any of your DHs had to get....
Yes...my DH was reluctant about it also....but, he went anyway. He doesn't like to talk about it at all though. DebG had a great analysis....something she said to her DH....maybe she'll post it....it made me laugh.

My DH had no problem doing that...eventually when we had to do IUI he had to "give a sample" once a month...

Semen analysis, should be the one of the first tests done. It's simple....a man could bring his semen to the testing place,...within 30 minutes. However, my dh, had his done at the RE .....they had plenty of porn ! lol He said it was 'surreal'......they gave him a gigantic cup. lol

OOh let me see if I can find that thread. Humn...was that here or on liW?
I cant find it! Can anyone help? I just lOVE the wording on it.
OK well, I kept trying to search for it but I just can't find it. Basically I told DH this How would you like it if you had to get an invasive anal probe only to find out the problem was with me all along and all I would have had to do is pee in a cup to discover it? Wouldn't you be ticked off that you had to go through all that for nothing? That seemed to work with him.
