    Confused Has anyone tcc when their partner has Crohns? Meds supposedly interfere with male fertility?

    Hey y'all, we have been ttc since November 2013 (one chemical pregnancy occurred in November), but haven't been successful. I am ovulating according to temps, and we dtd every other day if not more, so of course I investigated some reasons we are not successful. My fiancé has Crohns disease, but a rare form in which he mostly just gets painful inflammation flare ups about once a month now. He has been on and off medications such as pentasa, sulfasalazine, and prednisone. Not only to they decrease sex drive and performance, but I read that they can cause decreased sperm count and abnormal morphology. Anyone else know anymore about this??

    I know there's at least one gal on here whose hubby had Crohns - bumping for more responses!

    My advice is that you are actually DTD TOO much - I would reduce frequency to more like every 2 days and then 3 additional attempts at pos OPK or you can use the SMEP found here Sperm Meets Egg Plan
