Would low sperm count have adverse effect on IVF and ICSI?

Hello doctor,

I am a 39-year-old male with a low sperm count of 1.9 million. My blood work shows that I have a high FSH. Our doctor highly suggested that I get genetic testing done before we proceed with an IVF or an ICSI. I would like to know why he would suggest that.

What could cause delayed ejaculation and low sexual drive in a 20-year-old male?

Hello doctor,

My boyfriend and I (both 20 years old) have been sexually intimate for five months and in that time, he has never ejaculated during intercourse or any other act. He has no problems ejaculating on his own but cannot ejaculate when he is sexually intimate with me. We have spent one and a half hours being intimate and nothing happened to him. I am worried about him and when I bring it up, he acts like it is no big deal. I am worried that there is something physically wrong that is causing this because he also seems to have a low sex drive for a 20-year-old male. How can I express my concern without sounding dissatisfied? Is this normal?

Thank you.
