[Closed] Fertility treatment and beyond...

So I [url2 years ago regarding the consumption of coffee and would it have a detrimental effect on conceiving, Some helpful comments were written, some not so helpful and many putting the situation (at the time) into context from folk further down the line. 2 years down our line, guess what, still no luck, Quit the coffee for a fair few months, and the alcohol, to be perfectly honest Mrstaco and I have been through all the motions, all tests come back fine, Last week I was supplying high quality :wink: Just finished our third and final round of IUI, it's difficult to be upbeat after 3 years, We'll have one chance at the NHS funded IVF, after that they'll be no chance we can afford any other treatments. Anyone else had success after all the treatment? Pressure off..... To be honest we've spent a large proportion of our 3 years relaxed and enjoying ourselves, I don't see how much more relaxed we need to be for it to work, I've known two other couples that went through the treatment, gave up before having a child, There is hope but its wearing thin.

Great news OP.

We have a 13 year old son, who is now 6' 1" tall, who was conceived by ICSI and IVF. In my case testicular cancer prevented any chance of conceiving naturally, the ICSI procedure also ended up with me now being 100% infertile but it did work! We had to fund everything ourselves and due to complications etc the bill was well over £15k!

I know there are lots of people for whom it doesn't work out but for many it does but it's super stressful.
