A member asked:
Male-low count (1.2mill), low motility (29%), high fsh (35). will putting him on clomid (clomiphene) & hcg help sperm--or stay away from clomid (clomiphene) bc it raises fsh?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IVF/ICSI: With severe male factor infertility ivf and icsi is the best treatment. Especially here, fsh shows he is going into sperm failure just like women can go into early menopause. So usually there are no good treatments to help except ivf.

If you produce more than one mature follicle on clomid, (clomiphene) will your body typically release all of them, or does that only happen with an HCG trigger?
