(for a 39 year old man who has Seizures, and takes Depakote) My husband and I have been trying to conceive for almost 2 years. He has been taking the depakote for 1 year and 8 months. His doctor just winged him off of it. My question is how long does it take a man's sperm count and motility to get back to normal after stopping it?
