Good evening dr, Thank you for taking time out to attend to our questions. God bless you. i am so sad right now. My husband has been battling oligospermia since we got married. We've been married for 3 years and started TTC after 1 year. I thought i was the one with the problem cos i was seeing a gynae at that time. Mid last year, d gynae asked my DH to run MCS/SFA test, which we did. The test result broke my heart. There was no trace of infection but d count was very low. We have used manix,addyzoa and now hes on alarsin fortege. He did another test today and the result is: Motility 5% %active progressive nil %sluggish progressive 5% %immobile 95% Sperm motility index 5 Sperm count 700,000 cells >39.0 x 10^6/ml Sperm morphology %normal cells 60% %Abnormal cells 40% <10% abnormal forms WBC Count 0-2 Please help interprete this result. He's so sad right now. I will appreciate if someone can help me please. Thanks |

Fumbaby, Your scan is normal. The follicle, at 14mm, is yet to attain ovulation diameter. |

kemifemi:Hi, Please calm down. Channel your energy towards finding a solution instead. Dooh! I don't understand your report of the sperm count. If it is 700, 000 cells, it is extremely low! The sperm motility and other parameters are also extremely poor. He should do hormone profile: LH, FSH, Testosterone, and others, to understand whether he has a testicular problem or other organs are involved. He should also do a karyotype to rule out a genetic cause By now, you should be seeing a fertility expert: plans for IVF are strongly advised. Adoption is an option too. All the best. 2 Likes |

leocolin:Ok. I understand your problem. PE is quite a common sexual complaint. Anxiety is a common cause. There are other common causes. Counselling will help. There are medicines that can be prescribed in extreme cases not responding to behavioural changes or psychotherapy. You may pm me for further advice. |

Hello Doctor. I consulted a urologist late last year after I started feeling (4rm mild to severe) pain in my left testi-cle. A couple of tests were carried out on me, incLuding a scrotal scan. At d end of it all, I was diagnosed with VARICOCELE, but the urologist said d surgery can be done on a later date. 9 months down the line; d pain is now unbearable and I think it's high time a surgery is carried on me to ease d pain. My questions are; 1. What is d worst side-effect of varicocelectomy you know? 2. What is d cost of varicocelectomy here in Nigeria? It takes hours to see my Urologist; I don't want to go and queue a whole day at the hospital just to know the cost of d surgery. Pls help!!! Thks. |

blazers007, relax and take your time to read around.. You just have to see the doctor anyway.. because there is a lean chance that they will just take you in for surgery even if you have all the money in hand. You will also be needing a day or two to rest after the procedure According to studies, the side effects are usually not bad and prognosis good.. Go eat good food and sleep for your life 1 Like |

Peacewealth:Hi, No need to take glucophage. Not advisable. There could be delay of return to fertility following Depo use. This can vary from a few weeks to several months. There is really no way to say for sure that you will ovulate this or that time. Relax. Live your normal life. You will not even know when you took in. All the best 1 Like |

GoodKay:Hi, Normally, bromocriptine is not indicated post-first trimester miscarriage. Even in latter stage pregnancy loss/still birth when it may used to suppress milk production, it is used as a second-option. And I cannot understand why intercourse must be delayed, or contraception used, since it was a simple D and C. Since he is an experienced doctor as you said, probably a gynaecologist/obstetrician, you should ask him for more education concerning the drugs and their intended functions, especially as you seem not to tolerate them. He may be trying to bring your prolactin hormone down (which must have started rising due to the pregnancy). Personally, I think it is not necessary as all hormonal changes following pregnancy will resolve few weeks after termination of pregnancy. All the best. 1 Like |

Re: Doctor In The House:Obstetrics And Gynecology by omicron(m): 12:35pm On Aug 28, 2015 |
anthney87:Hi, I honestly found your post amusing Treatment of PE depends on the cause. Few drugs licensed for its treatment are prescription drugs, to be prescribed by a physician who has seen the patient. There are behavioural changes too that can help one to overcome it. That is where counselling comes in. Kegel exercises help in the long term. Training oneself by way of increasing will power, "distraction mechanisms" and reducing the refractory period are good short term measures, though these are hard to master and takes time to perfect. Normally, after ejacuulation, the peniss goes flacid for a varying period of time ranging from a few minutes to a few hours. That period is what is called the refractory period. By reducing this period, the gap between the 1st and 2nd round is almost eliminated, prolonging the sexual experience and improving the man's confidence (which is a therapy on its own). Chronic masturbation is a common cause of PE through some mechanisms whereby the brain is "addicted to early gratification" following repeated masturbation. Cessation of masturbation will help in the medium term, although the problem could worsen temporarily following abrupt stoppage of habitual masturbation. There are other common causes too apart from habitual masturbation. Some prescription drugs, which are not licensed for the treatment of PE, such as tramadol and some antidepressants, can delay ejaculation substancially in a lot of people. These drugs are not medically advised for treatment of PE due to concerns about their long term safety and adverse effects, including the possibility of erectile dysfuction/impotence. Moreso, they are prescription medicines, meaning that the use of them without a doctor's prescription may constitute an offence or a crime. In summary, PE is a common sexual complaint. It is responsible for a small amount of infertility cases, and can become a threat to success in relationships. Treatment is mainly via counselling (psychothery/sex therapy). A few licensed drugs for its treatment will require prescription. All the best 1 Like |

Hi Dr, My cousin is a first time mother (FTM) and she is 6months pregnant. She registered for ANC quite early, being a FTM, she is not a known hypertensive. So on her first visit at abt 8-9wks thereabt, her bp was a little elevated say 140/90mmhg n it was attributed to stress n indeed it was. 2weeks later she repeated d visit n her bp was still elevated. So the gynecologist counseled her and placed her on tab vasoprin 75mg daily. She asked of the indication n d explanation she got suggests it's routinely given for first time mothers to improve placental perfusion so to say. For sometime now she hasn't been taking it cos of our concern over the fact that she really doesn't need to take it throughout her pregnancy, cos I know it's not an antihypertensive drug. By the way, after her last visit she has adopted more of relaxation and her bp has been perpetually less than 120/80mmhg till date. Questions r; What is d role of vasoprin in pregnancy? Does she really need it without an indication? Kindly advice. Thx. |

omicron: Sorry if I wasn't clear enough, I meant my lower abdomen gets bloated a day or 2 after ovulation, n I do feel headache n lower back pain. The symptoms go away when my period starts, want to bliv it's PMS. Pls I want to knw if it can affect my chance of getting pregnant? Thanks |
Re: Doctor In The House:Obstetrics And Gynecology by Nobody: 8:54pm On Aug 28, 2015 |
lily19: Madam. Symptoms are not hindrance to one having pregnancy.Symptoms are individual conditions one can express before an health agent for he or she to know what may be wrong with you. If these symptoms weren't from complications with any pelvic complaint with the uterus and adnexae,then it should be by assumption PMS.However,if it turns out the otherwise,then a need for pelvic examination by a physician is inevitable. |

adaphik: Vasoprin is a low dose aspirin and does carries all pharmacological aspect of aspirin,but in low dose. Vasoprin is not a normal for any pregnant woman but for cases where the woman may have HBP associated with pregnancy.Vasoprin helps to improve this condition by making a thinning of the blood. Vasoprin should be given in a prescribe ''?mg'' by the doctor and should be discontinued before the 34week-36week of pregnancy. |

Doc please I need your help save my marriage, o have been married for a year and now. But b4 then I lived a reckless life, and now I cant get my wife pregnant. I have gone for several test, one among which showed that I have an isolated staph and since then I have been taking different antibiotics. I haven't gone back for the test again. I am having serious waist pain and some times tingling sensation in my joystick some times a kind of pimple on my joystick &when I break it ,a thick water like liquid comes out of it. What should I do please help me I signed into Nairaland because of this, I am tired of going to one hospital &another. Please save my marriage I love my wife |
Re: Doctor In The House:Obstetrics And Gynecology by Nobody: 8:20pm On Aug 29, 2015 |
kponkanaG3: Sir. You may still have to be physically examine most especially the pen.is.A pimplish rash on the penis by differentiality could result from Herpes genitalis,or Human papilloma virus infection (HPV) ,although HPV is more of a growth..But the far reaching point is that you make out time to make an appointment with a medical laboratory agent to ascertain if you have been infected with any of these common STDs or UTI. It is expected that your wife in suite do same test for STDs and UTI in order to tame it at this stage.Follow sensitivity and stay healthy. |
