I just had this same issue. My swimmers were in a little worst shape. 4 months later after doing what I did below my wife is pregnant. We are expecting around Christmas. We did it naturally too, there is hope bro. I felt the same way. This what I did for four months per my endocrinologist's prescription.

-HCG 2500 IU three times weekly for 2 months - I stopped once she go pregnant.
-50 mg Clomiphene Every day for 4 months
-Two vitamins called Fertilaid and Fertiaid mobility booster. Everyday 4 months - PM me and I will sent you a link where you can find these - they are over the counter.

Like I said this what my endocrinologist had me do and it worked. We were stoked we did not have to do IVF and it happened naturally. I wish you all the best going through this, I feel for you man. Just know many other men have gone through this and were able to have kids. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

I had a similar problem my sperm count was low, and had terrible motility and morphology, and was able to get my sperm count to normal levels with the following protocol prescribed by a fertility doc. My wife is now 32 weeks pregnant with twins.

10,000iu HCG per week split in 3 shots MWF. First, 5 weeks I took 1 amp of 250 FSH along with the HCG on M and F. I was told the FSH is necessary in order to ensure that all sperm are healthy (motility and morphology). Note, the FSH was not covered by insurance; in the States I was quoted 5 weeks worth as 1200 to 1500. I ordered from overseas with my prescription from the doc (which I took a picture of and emailed to the pharmacy) and got it for 650. You may be able to get it from a cite on here. Also, HMG has FSH in it so you could go that route as well. I also took clomid and nolva on tuesday and thursday and saturday. After 3-4 months, my sperm came back as normal. I would talk to your doctor about whether this type of protocol is worth trying. Also, told me to where boxers and keep a cold drink or ice on my sack for about an hour every night.

Sorry to hear about this brother....let go and let God. He will give you only what he thinks you can handle. Goodluck

Sorry to hear that buddy, but don't blame the Gear too quickly. I have several friends with very low Sperm counts who have never touched a drop of Gear, are teetotal etc.

In Contrast I have a very high sperm count and both of my wives (2 different relationships !!) got pregnant whilst I was mid cycle.

Maybe have a bash at a croud funding to help with the IVF if it's needed. There are lots of kind people out there with or without children that are more than willing to chip in.

All the best and good luck for the future.

Yeh brother...u gotta keep your head up. People are told they are sterile every day but then have children later on...I hate to be "this guy" but if it's in GODS plans brother then it will happen...but I definitely think this is a pregear issue. Goodluck homie!!

I know a guy who was on gear for years and was told he was sterile by his doctor. He took it as a blessing because he already had a family with an ex wife and didn't want anymore. Needless to say a year later his new girlfriend came up pregnant. He didn't believe it was his and denied paternity and everything but dhs did a DNA test and low and behold it was indeed his. So don't write it off too soon. I consider you still young enough to bounce back. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be.

I will keep you in my prayers bro that some of the suggestions below will work. I am sterile also and yes, it is from AAS use in my case at least. Don't beat yourself up bro, it's not that common at all and not a clear and present danger to everyone that uses AAS and like what is said below it could very well be something preexisting and have nothing to do with your AAS use.

Damn brother. Have you tried the HCG, HMG and clomid to get the boys swimming? I would look into that stuff and see if you cannot get them rolling. Did the Doc give any options besides IVF?

I got my girl pregnant on cycle I would put money this was pre existing bro , it ain't over til it's over my neighbors were told he was sterile adopted a kid and boom had two kids of their own

Hang in there my brother. There has to be a way with all of the experience vets on here. I will ask God for you to find a way. It actually almost took me two years off everything just being completely natural so time might be the only cure

Seriously consider hmg! I have had low count and low motility since before AAS useage. And we had to do IVF before I ever started using AAS. But my counts increased from 6 million to more than ten times that from hmg. My insurance didn't cover IVF so we had to save up for it, but a lot of clinics take payments if it comes down to it. And also then you would have fertilized embryos frozen so you could stop caring about the sperm count issues.

Damn brother I know this is a really hard time and your mind is probably all over the place right now but take step back and take some deep breaths. Definitely gotta give it some time. Its great that you still have sperm. Forget 10k for IVF right now theres other routes with drugs that stimulate FSH like HMG, nolva, clomid, maybe pull some bloods to see where you FSH levels are at. But most of all give it time and do some research on this. ill make sure to keep you in my prayers to the big man.

Shitty news man. As already said, dont give up. May recover in time, or with help of other supps will bounce back. Certainly not the only one in the situation. Definitely see fertility doc and look at options. Gear may not be the cause, but its always a risk when we dabble in this game. Hopefully your lady will be gentle.

Give it time brother.. Time heals all!!

I was told by a friend that when ur not reproducing sperm and u hav been shut down it takes up 13+ months to recover from that. Trust me my FSh & Lh came in low an I'm also concerned cuz I want to have kids really soon this is exaclty why after this cycle ill probably take a yr off just to make sure I recover pop some kids and then get back on :-) good luck brother I'm sure ur body will recover just stay away from aas till u recover

Definitely should allow for more time to recover. 2 months off isn't very long

Out of all the risks of using AAS, this is my biggest concern. Hang in there buddy, you've only been off for a short while. Hope for the best. Out of curiosity what was the cycle you ran?

Go to a fertility doctor that you can be HONEST with and knows about STEROID use. Clomid, HCG, HMG, are just a few options to try. When did your last cycle end and what were you running? Never say never and don't give up on yourself. All you need is one little guy to swim straight and you have a chance. If you go into this battle thinking you've already lost it will make things worse! Definitely don't give up and see the right doctor. You're balls aren't there for looks, they just need a little jump start. Pm me if you need too. I dont know where you live (or if you want to disclose that info). I'll be honest bro. I'm live in NY. I can help point you in the right direction if you're over this way. Either way if you need something I'm here. Be well and DONT CALL IT QUITS YET!!!

Bro, I would try HMG and HCG...

My fiance and I fucked without birth control for years and never got pregnant... Then I started using roids with hcg and boom, 6 months later she was pregnant! Now I have a beautiful 4 month old daughter!

How long you been off? Maybe you need more time. In my younger days I ran some stupid long cycles and still had plenty of swimmers.

Sorry to hear this brother, anyone comment on the chances of this being gear related?

You think it was the gear?

What about adoption?
