That post was 137 days ago was... June 19, 2016. I had verified on about May 15, 2016 that I was azoospermic, and stopped the aggressive heat treatments on that date. I had used a variety of testicle-heating interventions for about 4 months. My sperm were completely gone for 2 months, then slowly started to return.
I intend to get a professional sperm analysis at the six month mark (November 15th), then redo the heat protocol, collecting more data this time... I suppose I need some better slides.
- tkp 10y agoIs there a way to follow your experiments ? What heating method are you using ? Have you developed a technique to evaluate your spermcount yourself ? would be very interested to discuss more, send a mail if you like hn(a)tokiop(dot)com
- tcj_phx 10y ago> Is there a way to follow your experiments ? not yet... I'll have to figure something out I guess. > Have you developed a technique to evaluate your spermcount yourself ? there's a new centrifugal sperm count device... ahh, here: https://trakfertility.com/shop/trak-male-fertility-testing-system/ https://trakfertility.com/shop/trak-male-fertility-testing-s... (oh my, those 'refills' are expensive...) Thanks for the jogging my memory about that. This device is new to the market - it launched some time this fall, iirc. I bought a microscope: "yup, no sperm". I'll send you an email tomorrow.
- tkp 10y agogreat, thanks for your reply, trak looks expensive indeed. I am considering using a microscope too, interesting to know that the difference is clearly visible. Do you use any coloring ?
