No Biological Children for us

[Deleted]

Just needed to get that out. MH's genetic results came back. So in addition to being azoo and having a hormonal imbalance, he also has a chromosomal anomaly. So any lingering hope of us having children together has been extinguished. He is simply crushed. I honestly don't know where we will go from here, I need him to work through this before we discuss options. I'd be okay either way and lean towards donor over adoption if we pursue children, but I have bonding concerns with him and a child conceived via a donor. I'm shockingly keeping it together.

Omg, hugs bonsoir. I'm so sorry for this news for you.

I am sure the doctor already said this but is there no chance they can do that TESE thing where they extract the sperm and then test them to see which ones have the anormality or not?

Please lean on us here for any support, I can imagine this will be tough on your DH. Don't rush to make decisions now, take some time. :heart:

TESE is a possibility if there are any sperm, but if we had a male child he would sterile. Plus using compromised genetic material makes me a bit nervous. We still meet with the urologist on the 25 th and hopefully will gain some better understanding then.

Thank you all! We are definitely going to take some time. We are still relatively young 31 & 32, so we still have a few years if we pursue the donor route.

I have no advice, but just wanted to echo everyone else's hugs!

I'm so sorry to hear this. Big, big hugs to you and your H. As Bronx said, vent here any time.

I am so, so sorry to hear this. I hope you and DH can find peace with your next decisions, whatever they are. It does sound like if you can get your DH mentally/emotionally OK with donor sperm, that may be the best option.

I am so, so sorry. Lots of hugs your way.
