It’s one of those things my wife has gone back and forth on- wanting kids. So we have agreed that I just keep pushing on training.I should have added pregnancy to my list or the inability to get my wife pregnant the "traditional" way after my AAS use for so many years as a serious drawback to PED use. Severe Azoospermia in my case. Tried for the better part of 3 years to get pregnant and nada after coming off everything. Eventually went to a fertility clinic where they evaluated my "sample" and discovered that my #'s were extremely low and the motility wasn't great. Morphology was ok but according to the specialists, the few guys I made had almost zero chance of getting the job done w/o some assistance. Luckily ICSI became available and in combo with invetro we got pregnant. She's 18 now. Beautiful, smart just like her mama. Even froze some embryos from that batch. We chose to put in one of those stored embryos 5 years later and got pregnant a second time. She's almost 13. Honor roll, athlete. My wife and I were seriously considering adopting at one point.
I am blessed.
But we’ve had the very real convo about how I have used gear off and on since I was 20 and hit out the gate with sdrol. My ex wife didn’t want kids so was easy. But 8 years in with my wife now and she goes back and forth. But like you we talked about adopting as well.
Regardless of the outcome or what happens we knowingly knew the risk when I got back into things at 30.
