Hi Scott,
I had my first IUI today...sperm count was 4.2 and motility was 24%...both were flagged by the lab as LOW.
What does CCB guarentee? Obviously, I won't know whether this IUI was successful or not for another two weeks.
On another thread, you gave a contact person to inquire about low counts...is this still the correct contact and would it be appropriate for me to contact her if this IUI was unsuccessful?
Thanks, Kari

Those numbers are all low. Please contact Melonee at mevans@cryobank.com. She will be happy to help you.
Just for the record, it is important to note that on occasion some physician's will wash every vial themselves -- including IUIs. It is VERY important to make sure that is not occuring as it basically wipes out a significant portion of healthy sperm. I am not suggesting this happened in your case, but I always like to get the word out to anyone reading about the importance of purchasing the right vial type.
Regards,

I will check with my physician to ask about how the lab handles the speciman.
