Poor chance: Although men who have CF can enjoy a normal sex life, they are almost always (in about 98% of cases) infertile due to failure of the vas deferens, the tube which carries sperm from the testis to the penis, to develop properly (Kaplan et al, 1968). The article is attached for your review, but before losing all hope I would get his sperm count checked before considering other methods.
