Have 60% Antisperm Antibodies. Last Count Good. Now Down. On Vitamin B6, E250. Suggestions?

Dh has 60% antisperm antibodies. Last count was quite good with 30million per ml. Ttc for number 2 for 3 years with several failed ivfs. Last ivf abandoned due to lack of response and converted to iui. sperm wash up was 3million which the clinic were happy with. New plan to do 6 iui over 12 months. Went for first iui today but was cancelled due to dh dramatic drop in count, now down to 6 million per million and only 0.4million for wash up iui..
He has been taking

Vitamin d3 plus boron & selenium x2
Vitamin b12 1000ug x1
Vitamin b6 100mg x1
Vitamin e 250 iu x1 ( blackmores natural)
Tribulus terrestris 20g x 1
L-arginine 1000mg x1
L carnitine fumerate 600mg x1
Co enzyme q10 with fish oil 150 mg
Selenium drops.

He has also lost 10 kg.

So confused that his count has dropped so dramatically as these are supposed to boost count. Clinic has advised that we stop all supplements and start on menevit. Naturapath has advised taking paternal plus. Any advice please. Has anybody else heard of this happening

Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. I think your husband is doing everything he can to boost his virility. However, if you continue to have no success in the next few months, I would advise you to go for IVF or IUI or ICSI as it would guarantee pregnancy. Also storing sperm may be a good idea. Consult a specialist for more information.

I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
