Question

Conception and MS

Hello fellow, TTCer's
I have kids from a previous relationship, and my now spouse and I have decided to begin our TTC journey.

He has MS.

Has anyone else successfully conceived where their partner also has MS?

Hey sweetie. MS is in the autoimmune category. I have 2 autoimmune disorders and have 3 healthy children. I would have him go over medications with his doctor. I believe some for MS could lower sperm count. Good luck!

Ldecker383, Yes he is on Tecfidera, and the best the MS Dr could say was, there isnt enough evidence to say a solid yes or no, but go forth and try.

This is his first time ever trying.

Thank you!

Hey Kattycat. You could always have his sperm count checked if you don't conceive after a few months. Just to rule out any concerns. I wish you guys the best of luck! I have the 3 from a previous marriage and this will be my husband's first child if we conceive. So I understand the situation some. I hope this helps ease your mind sweety.
