Brief Answer:
Low sperm count

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about infertility.

Following is my reply :

1) Locipil is a contraceptive pill used to regularize cycles.

2) This pill will prevent pregnancy and is against conceiving. Stop it immediately.

3) Your husband's sperm count is low. Please consider option of IVF / ICSI ( test tube baby).

4) Ask him to ejaculate inside vagina which will help in conceiving.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Thank you Dr, Is it ok to have intercourse when endometrium lining is thin ??? Is there any natural way for thicknening of endometrium lining ??? Is there any ways to increase sperm count ??? If the sperm count is increased considerably will there be chances of natural pregnancy ??? I had regular periods in XXXXXXX July, Aug, Sep. In Sep 15, i was told that my endometrium lining is thin. In Sep 2015, I was first prescribed this Loccipil tablet. In Oct 2015, I missed the complete period cycle. I had period on Nov 20. next period on 22nd Dec 2015.
