Enterococcus was found in my husbands semen culture. we followed the antibiotics that were prescribed. my doctor says there is no need to repeat. should we repeat the semen culture to see if its gone. we are doing an egg retrieval next month?

It is good to repeat a culture for reassurance after the antibiotics are done with.

I wonder how long he was prescribed the antibiotic and antibiotic name. Because of your plan, I think it is prudent and cost saving if he has the semen retested for a successful outcome. Good luck!
