No sperm found

We been trying for a baby for two years now, and last year I found out that I have no sperm, after supplying two samples. I had various blood tests, fibrosis test and few other tests and everything else seems to be normal except low testerone level. The NHS suggested we go through IVF (sperm retrieval). I'm just wondering what are the chances of sperm retrival? And what are our options? Thanks

1-2% sperm morphology: ICSI or IVF?

We have started IVF treatment this week and I'm concerned that the clinic we are with have given us the wrong advice about whether we should be having ICSI or IVF. My husband has had 3 sperm samples. Each sample has had had normal numbers and motility but reduced morphology. The first 2 samples were 1% morphology and the third was 2%. We have been told that we will be having IVF and not ICSI but I'm concerned that this is the wrong treatment option given my husband's low morphology. My question is what the protocol would be at MFS with these results? As we EC is likely to be in around one week's time I would so grateful if someone was able to let me know so I can have an informed conversation with our clinic (we are currently with the NHS and have had a nightmare with them - I'm concerned that they haven't offered ICSI purely for most reasons - should this cycle fail we will be self-funding our next cycle).
Thanks very much for any help you can give me.

How does Buserelin work?

IVF or ICSI?

We have been referred for IVF as I have ovulatory problems. We have been told we would be having ICSI as on my husband's latest seaman analysis he was slightly lower than average but nothing to worry about (his previous one was a good result) would you therefore recommend ICSI or conventional IVF?
