Could Medication For Cholesterol Lower Sperm Count?
My husband has just put on the drug Simvastatin, for his high LDL and Cholestral , we are trying to get pregnant, will this drug in any way keep his sperm count down? I say this because he just had a reversal in Nov 2011 and his count was low but should have come back by now
