Sulfasalazine and male infertility
My husband has Crohn's Disease and is taking Sulfasalazine. I have read that it causes temporary male infertility by lowering sperm count and messing with motility and morphology of the sperm. It supposedly is reversible once he's been off the medicine for a few months. But I have heard of a couple of instances that a woman has gotten pregnant while their husband was on it.
Do any of you ladies have any experience with this medication and have had fertility issues afterwards or perhaps have gotten pregnant while their DH was on it?
We DTD on the 19th and later that day I had a positive OPK (CD11). We aren't trying for another one even though I feel ready for one cuz the medicine makes it seem impossible. So what do you think my chances are of being pregnant this cycle? I'm on CD 23 and plan on taking a HPT on Friday. I'm not expecting anything but I guess you never know, right?
