Hi there ~

Thank you for the report details. There is good news and bad news. The good news is that your husband and you can have kids! The bad news is that it might be very difficult. A way out of this problem is IVF. If you have been trying for a long time and it has not been working and that was the reason for you to have yourself and your husband tested, then IVF is a good way to have a baby for sure! Please consult and IVF specialist. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
