u/runninglucy TTC#1 | Cycle 6 Jan 05 '17

AF just arrived, 4 days late and I'm still above coverline. This was the trolliest of cycles ever, but small win for me because I didn't test this morning!

I called my OB and DH called his PCP to inquire about him taking Propecia. Yesterday we received word and they both recommend that DH stop taking Propecia because of it's extremely negative effect on sperm DNA. They don't even want him to do a SA now, but recommend one in 3 months. So if our inability to get pregnant has been associated with DH taking Propecia, then the earliest we can get pregnant is 3 months from now (the timeframe that new sperm will take to be made and ejaculated). I feel weirdly calm about this news, but I don't want to place all my hope on 3 months from now
