Has anybody had experience with male infertility secondary to diabetes?

My fiance and I have been trying to get pregnant for 12 months with no luck. He has type 1 diabetes that is poorly controlled. My Dr. said she has never heard of diabetes having anything to do with infertility, but plans to read more on the subject. Has anyone had personal experiences? Thanks!
It is poorly controlled. Yes I am aware this can cause kidney damage, amputation, etc. I’m a nurse in the operating room, TRUST me, I see this! This would in no change my mind about marrying him.. thanks though.

Can shocking a mans testicles lead to infertility?

A few years before we met, back in his party days, my fiance’ shocked his nuts with a tazer. He did it repeatedly, and now that we’re planning a future together, he fears he won’t be able to produce. I can tell it really bothers him, but he doesn’t have health insurance, and can’t see a doctor about it. Is there another way to find out if he’s sterile, without having to pay a lot?

Is there a Depo-Provera lawsuit regarding infertility?

I have been off of the shot for 6 years. Since being off of the shot, my periods came back heavier and more painful than before. My hormones are out of whack and for three years my Fiance’ and I have not been able to conceive. I have read several websites with hundreds of women who have the same issues. Does anyone know if there is a class action lawsuit regarding infertility? If not, why isn’t there one?

Should I be worried about infertility or other complications?

I just recently found out that I have chlamydia. I believe that I have had it for a little over 8 months now, maybe even longer. I am getting it treated now. However my fiance and I are, well were, trying to conceive. I am really worried that this may cause problems with infertility. Im just wondering if anyone knows how long it takes to expierence problems or even if anyone has any success stories to give me hope! Thank you for any help.
