Brief Answer:
Profertile is good

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Your sperm count at 16 million is normal. You dont need treatment.

Profert contains antioxidants. This helps only if sperm count is lower due to oxidative stress on the sperms.

Almost all other brands work by same mechanism to increase sperm count. Hence it really does not make much difference to change to different medicine. Profert is food enough.

I hope your doubt is cleared.

Let me know if you need any more help.

So i can get pregnant if my husband has 16million per ml ?

Because most of doctors told me he should take treatment.. Ive been trying to get pregnant for a a year now.. His sperm count was 3 million but it was increased to 16 million.. And now 3 months trying with no results..

I have another question
When we want to make a sperm rountine test they ask my husband to stop having intercourse for at least 4 days to get a good number

So now lets say my ovulation test shows positive today ovulate today so i have 3 days to have intercourse to rise my chances so do u think that i have to have intercourse first and third day to increase chances of reproducing sperm or its ok to have the 3 days intercourse
And is it ok if twice a day to increase the chance or once is enough?

Please help me im so desprate to have a baby and sperm count is the problem its only 16

Brief Answer:
Consider ICSI

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Yes. You can get pregnant with 16 million per ml count.

Dont wait after ovulation. Test is different. I suggest you have intercourse everyday for 5 days after ovulation positive. You dont need to wait for 3 days. Trying twice day is better.

If your husband's sperm count was 3 million earlier it might go back to same.

Consider ICSI ( test tube baby) treatment for pregn if not conceived within next 3 months.
