Anyone did a sperm analysis? I was wondering if it would less us know the count of xx and xy sperm, since my hubby is taking some potentially dangerous meds for his sperm to make sure there are not too many abnormal sperm for ttc but i guess knowing how many xx or xy would be fun also :)

It will not show that. Men make sperm 50/50 by design. It will show you motility and morphology which are the two main ones that show you how difficult or easy it may be to get pregnant.

Men make 50-50 X and Y sperm, and there's an essay about why that is biologically here http://genderdreaming.com/forum/sperm-qualities/552-guess-what-men-make-50-50-x-y-sperm.html

I have seen a ton of people do SA and it's been about 50-50 every single time. there are people out there who are more than happy to take your money to do SA, it's a total waste.

Swaying doesn't work because we alter the % of X to Y sperm, something we do seems to affect the ability of one vs. the other to fertilize the egg - why this is, we can only guess at.
