    Girl mummies: FR or CFR?

    As the title says really. Which one do you think is more effective in lowering sperm count?

    CFR = Compressed Frequent Release. It's a strategy for when you intended to FR and either ran out of time to do enough releases or DH couldn't manage it.

    You can read up on all the FR strategies here: http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...pink-blue.html

    Abstaining for 2+ weeks would sway pink, but isn't recommended as abstination for that long can damage sperm. And there is some worry that it might increase risk of birth defects. In men over 35 abstination is definitely not recommended because of this risk being higher in older guys, and also if DH smokes/drinks/exposed to chemicals and other stuff.
    Me (38) and DH (38)

    SAHM military momma to DS1 (2004), DS2 (who's all boy but loves to dance, though not in a tutu!) (2006), DS3 (2009), and our rainbow baby girl DD1 (2017)

    early m/c Jan 2013

    Cycle #1 @ HRC (Oct 2014) - 6 retrieved, 4 mature, 3 fertilized and biopsied. 1XX and 1XY abnormal. 1XX no DNA found, rebiopsied and found normal, frozen.
    FET attempt #1 (Nov 2014) - cancelled due to functional cyst. FET attempt #2 (Jan 30, 2015) - NT. Remaining embie failed to thaw.

    May 2015 - started infertility treatments at OFC. Femara 2.5mg
    July 2015 - BFP after second round of Femara. Aug 4 2015 - 6w4d
    Dec 21 2015 - mmc 7w1d

    Apr 2016 - IVF Cycle #2. Converted to IUI because of uneven response and leading follicles.
    Apr 19, 2016 - IUI with 3 mature follicles (2 right, 1 left), post wash: 17mil, 94% motility and 89% rapid motility. BFN.

    June 3, 2016 - 5mg Femara cycle. 5w.
    Sep 1, 2016 - 5mg Femara cycle. 8w.

    Our rainbow baby girl arrived on Mon Aug 28, 2017 - "After every storm comes a rainbow". We are so thankful and grateful for every moment.

    We don't know which is better and it may be different for each individual anyway.

    Most important is to do what DH feels good about and that doesn't completely make it impossible for him to complete the transaction.
