Dry Orgasm / Retrograde ejaculation?

Hello ladies,

My fiance and i have been ttc for about 9 months now. The problem is that when we BD nothing comes out. So basically our chances of getting pregnant are about nil. Without any semen or sperm coming out, there's no point in even trying. Has anyone else dealt with this? I just find it so crazy. I told my dr about our problem and he asked for SA but i told him that's not possible as nothing comes out!! So we got referred to a fertility specialist who also asked for us to get a SA. We figured we would try as apparently sometimes a little bit does come out (although I've never seen it). But nothing comes out everytime we try. So he got an ultrasound on his testicles. We get the results tomorrow.

We think it might be retrograde ejaculation where the semen goes into the bladder instead. But we looked at his urine after we BD'd and it was clear (didn't seem cloudy like you might expect if there was semen in it). AND the specialist didn't even mention retrograde ejaculation.

Just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this?? I feel like it's such a crazy thing that hardly anyone else has it. I feel so alone.

Hi I know this was submitted a while back, but i'm a new member and just came across it. My husband also has retrograde ejaculation, he has type 1 diabetes since he was 17 and is now 37. We only just discovered Sudafed and it worked! We weren't worried about it in the past since we weren't ready for a family yet, but now that we've been talking about it we decided to try Sudafed and it worked!!!!! We haven't got our BFP yet, but i'm so excited just to know that this can be remedied and that we can possibly get pregnant on our own without having to go through IUI or IVF. This will be our second cycle TTC, last cycle we jumped in in the middle right around time of O, but AF came. So this cycle I'm charting and using OPK and Sudafed as well as taking prenatals. I hope this helps you and I would love to hear what happened and if yall were able to conceive. Feel free to PM me, I would love to hear your story. It's one thing TTC, but to know someone else is TTC with retro would be helpful. Thank you.
