Don't let the fight to have pregnancy make you think the only system in your body is just the reproductive system,you have 10 more systems of equal importance to reproduction.

The way you guys indulge,am afraid some of you may meet some edge. Just be careful what you use and take.

When i come home on break i notice that i start having major mood swings,what do i do

You may really need to gauge the cause of your change in mood planes if it is happening too often. Some mood swings are normal and soon may petered within moments of resting. Why some could have resulted in the use of some substance,drugs or whatever,or completely gone off to psychology.

You may help yourself by:

1) Manage all office work/cases/problems/relationship properly before coming home so as to avoid put your mind of there being at home.

2) Go to the bathroom and take a good shower playing a nice song to your hearing. This will put your off mind from any disturbing phenomenon coming in with the swings.

3)Settle all home problems surrounding the mood swing. Could it a bill yet to attend to,could it be a fallout in the friendship between you and another you have allowed to soured overtime,could it some regret in some action you have involved in etc...

4)Sleeping is a good remedy for mood swings in both occasions of acting weird or wild from the swing. Just call yourself to mind rest should a mood change is getting your restless and fuzzy relating with anyone at its onset.

5) Jot how you feel during this period. You may put it as a poem. Also knit at its should be how you dealt over it. This will make happy soon with time.

6) Explain to loved ones and friends how you feel and such at that time should be helpful, or in any equivalent ensure that you are being left alone to allow you purge before getting yourself.

7) Maintain a good self feel, and see it as what can happen to anyone anytime.

8 ) Seek medical help should it is getting above home care.

Next problem!

This thread is meant to attend to home accidents and simple relative health common problems around the home.

Feel free to ask your questions.

welcome back!!!
I weaned my baby 5months ago but ever since then when I press my breast it brings out clear fluid or yellow. I hope it's not preventing me from conceiving because I started trying last month.

The level of prolactin in an adult female after pregnancy is usually not the same before parity. It may fall down but not to the level of nulliparity. This is the reason for what you have seen to observe.

And so,it shouldn't. However, come back to me again should within a gap of 3 months nothing happens with same line of complaint or in addition, others in association.

Ha! It's husband and wife something oo

Don't mind me,I thought she was an Indian...lol.

Mofolam:
I did it on day 4 (just after my period) . What I understood from ur response is that odds of ovulating are against me.... also I forgot to add that my period is very regular

Estradiol, LH, FSH... day3
Progesterone... day 21.

Do also a Thyroid hormone profiling in addition to it.

I would have wanted to know something deeper but ...

awesomemrs:
OK doctor. Thank you. I'm saying from my calendar and calculations, I might ovulate 4 days after this doxycycline we are taking, so I'm saying we can try then. i.e. if Doxycycline finishes on the 5th, and ovulation is on the 9th, it is safe to try, right?

Safe! I fi con join for thre.esome.

Lol.

Do you know! Do you know!! Do you know!!!


...that the male sperm is incapable to activate the female ovum until the process of CAPACITATION is done and covered?


What is Capacitation?

It is the functional maturation of the male spermatozoon. It is when the male sperm is taking it as its responsibility now as the man in charge to fertilised the female egg. Without this process, no spermatozoon can activate the female egg.

Yet again,it is the responsibility of the female to cause capacitation on the male without which she herself can't do without it.

Process?

Immediately as the male ejaculates,the semen usually form coagulation, the coagulation is ensure that all the sperm cell spilled with its fluid are filled, bagged and carried,inside the cervix the fibrous matter forming the coagulation breaks again by a substance called Fibrinolysin in semen. Alkyline(not cidic type) discharge of the cervix also ensure that the coagulum also breaks too.

All this is to provide the male sperm the necessary energy and speed to gyrate to mummy. At this level the male sperm is called "active". Yet,it is incapable to cause activation of the female egg,and so it is assumed to be functionally immatured to fertilised the ovum.

To become functionally matured,the fluids produced during her cycle just after or before ovulation by womb linings act on the sperm to furtherly removed some heavy load being carried by the male sperm. This causes the male sperm to be over crazy to fertilise mummy.


Once again without female the males are nothing...

Women,forget it sey we dey yab una to be...una bad infact the baddest.


Good morning all.

Mofolam:
Ok. Thank u so much. What u are saying is that I need to get another blood test done right? Also on what day of cycle is best to have the test?

So,you did understand what I wrote formerly?
Which days did you do the former ones?

awesomemrs:
Thanks doc. Ovulation is 4 days right after the doxycycline is completed. Guess we can try, right?

Uh! uh!! No!!! I meant,4-7days of no try between you and Oga as in giving the Doxycycline time to drain off the system. After that,plan sex from when 1-2days before ovulation and also 1-2days after ovulation, putting in mind that you have a regular cycle and so a therefore a non-changing ovulation.

See me later when you have done with a confirmatory hormone profile. I am interested in your case.

Prisca1993:
Good afternoon mummies in the house. I need help pls as am beginning to be scared. Before our wedding last year January I and dh started treating infections, staph and c. Albican precisely, but till today it's still there. We have used almost all antibiotics (prescribed after lab test by doctors) and yet nothing. I keep getting this thick white discharge although the circle, no ewcm during ovulation and anytime I and dh Bd, he will be covered in that thick discharge when he comes out of me. It doesn't smell nor itch but it's always there. We started using herbs for over three months now but just last week I decided to test again and the result says it's still there and now it is resistant to almost all antibiotics except eritromycin and one other antibiotic. Now am scared of even taking it. Plz I need help on how to go about this. CC 2ballz and all sabi mama's. G
Sorry for the long post and God bless you.

You have fear for nothing but for the usual wrongs that is coated with staphylococcus spp from those roadside medicine hawkers parading themselves as herb sellers. Your not having normal cyclic discharge characteristics ain't cause by staphylococcus spp,Infact this is not a common organism perceived to be causing pelvic inflammatory disease. You didn't tell us how intense was the staphylococcus spp growth. Was it heavy or moderate?
Stop taking medications by impulse to treat what you have no good understanding of,you are only helping those organisms stronger than you expected.Make an appointment with a medical laboratory scientist to have your cervical mucus screened not the one you have been using,and follow sensitivity as given. Stick to duration of treatment, and don't expect Staphylococcus spp to be completely rid of you. We humans are patents to house this organisms in some places in our body,sick or not sick. Having a mild growth is appreciative and seek other means of helping your infertile state.

Having a cheesy vaginal appearance may be related to Candida albican infectious activities, it may suit you to know that few adult female to be concerned may not be hving itching of the vagina,though it is a cardinal sign for Candida albican disturbance. There is also no clinical report to have seen an infertility cause by Candida albican infectious activities. As advice before hand,take to the laboratory have your discharges screened from another place,follow sensitivities.

Having rounding off, I would also advice you have a pelvic scan done to know wherewithal anything wrong somewhere with structures. And lastly,due to the no-ovulatory show,you are kindly pressed to have a hormone profiling done to know if changes to these hormone serum concentration have been anywhere a devil to you.

Do you know! Do you know!! Do you know!!!

...that during the process of fertilisation of the female egg,the male sperm can only give and share with the female ovum everything within its cell but for its MITOCHONDRION.


What is a Mitochondrion?

A Mitochondrion is part of any cell composite organelles that is essential in the breakdown of food molecules to provide energy for the cellular activities and for the body system in general to thrive. Another way of referring to this powerful cell tool is to nicknamed it,the PHCN of the cell and at such without it the body system is dead.

As wonderful it is,a man's sperm mitochondrion is denied entry into the female ovum by the female egg itself. This is no mistake cause the female egg has its own to distribute energy to the zygote from that stage to when she cries to come out.

In other words, every energy possess in man or woman born of a woman derives his or her energy and state of activeness from a WOMAN from evolution.

If you are a WOMAN,nature by its work has shown you are Great!

Mommies and doc 2ballz,

Please how long do I wait for us to try (BD) after using docycyline. Thanks

4-7day off from Doxycycline and then you could put up plans for copulation within the next window of your ovulation. This depends on your normal cycle days.

Good afternoon. Pls some info will be greatly appreciated. I am 28yrs old and TTC for a 8months out of worry I had a scan and blood test done. It shows fluid in POD and it bothers me. But the gynecologist( at a govt hospital in Lagos ) said I don’t have anything to worry about. Should I get a second opinion or are govt hospital competent enough? This is the detailed result I got

You need not have to worry about the fluid sacculation in the Pouch of Douglas(POD). It will dry up in no time provided that the upper reproductive organs of yours ain't seriously inflamed,or ascites of the abdomen is not observed. Apart from that,every other thing concerned with the pelvic ultrasonography is okay.

Let me re-address this result properly for you..

LH is normal overly low even for day3
FSH is normal overly low even for day3
Progesterone is poor for a luteal phase
Estradiol is poor for day 3
Prolactin is okay.

With such a profile,don't even bear in mind to experience ovulation. With a look at this piece,you are likely having problems with Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism(HH)

It is a case where levels of LH and FSH is produced in minute quantity by the brain and so not enough to cause a stimulation of the ovaries. Due to lack of sensitivities from these hormones, the ovaries themselves will not produce enough estrogen and progesterone to sustain a normal reproductive cycle.This will result to no menstruation and then no reproduction on the side of the female.

A result as this shouldn't be overlooked but must be confirmed by doing another profiling. If the second confirmed it,then you need a serious attention from a well experienced gynaecologist.

Please play safe,liquorice is better use for other things not for ovulation induction. And if choose to continue, keep to moderation to avoid toxicity.

Fummylola:
Asking for someone, doc 2ballz what could cause a uterine lining to be 0.8mm at CD 11, and is there chance for implantation with that kind of uterine lining

It shouldn't be poor progesterone level,it should either be a low level of Estradiol or the uterine lining not probably responding to estrogen as a result of down-regulation at that phase of the cycle.

Thickening of the endometrial plate may improve if she has a long menstrual cycle >28days. But may not for a short cycle <25days.

Even at menstruation the suppose endometrial plate shouldn't go below 2mm,the start of a new cycle. And by day 11,it should have gone far better than that.

The chance for implantation is really not in sight cause when the uterine lining is deficient of functional thickness with cycle,it may also mean other criteria such as increase formation of uterine milk,lipid and glucose drops and increase vascularisation of its lining may also be in short supply. This may lead to a fail in implantation.

Thanks doc, Gd continuous blessings upon u n ur family.. Licorice to help me ovulate

Are you sure of what you know of Liquorice?

what other thing can this plant do you know?

orney:
V not tried any other test center, well, i was told reduce my weight by 5-10kg or i go tru ovarian drilling, i lost 5kg already, so he prescribed clomid for me last cycle without FT, tho i felt ovulation pains on cd 10,11,12, but m not sure which day exactly.. Now he gave me clomid again, i intend switching to licorice and do FT on my own

Watch the next cycle first before taking another clomid shot,and get to do FT. It is okay that way whether with the choice of using Liquorice or not.

Liquorice for what?

orney:
My hormonal profile read high LH, so my gynea did hsg and concluded my left ovary is polycystic, started placing me on drugs like met, aldactone,vit e, letro, but now clomid and d rest.. My cl is is Btw 26-28.

Wen we began d treatment, i noticed my eggs ruptures on cd 12,and dey are less dan 18mm around dat time,d cycle it went up to 25mm,it didn't rupture on time, chkd last on cd 17(luteal phase) also he sed the endometrium was not corresponding with the cd, hence conception may not b possible

Concerning d licorice, m scared it will make me ovulate before d egg matures

Uh! Know this,a normal egg carried by the ovarian follicle is never matured all through her menstrual cycles. The only time an ovum comes to maturity is after spermatic activation. However, the follicle housing those eggs may actually come to maturity always housing eggs that may never come to maturity without sperm activation. Some medical text refer to the ovulated egg as,"semi-matured or yet-to-mature egg". It is so said because unlike the sperm during the process of growth and formation to maturity,the ovum is naturally locked at the 2nd stage just after ovulation until a sperm finds it.

So,Licorice can't do that! Infact, Licorice can't release an egg before its supposed, if it happens,then that is your ovulation and not really a shift. The only problem here is that you may experience quick bleeding, a shortening of your cycle or even a longer one.

Disproportionation of both LH and FSH ratio is enough to tell PCOS,not just increase in LH only. Have you done a confirmation using other laboratory centres both on scan and profiling?


How much has this medication improved on you?

I think d point u are giving me now is, its not possible for me have PCOS and have a constant menstrual cycle...

Pls what is cystic condition? Does it means dat the cysts forms, and breaks only during menstruation?

Also, shd i disregard the use of licorice root since my cycle is regular, cos i read it makes PCOS patients ovulate early, i normally feel ovulation pains around day 12

"I think the point u are giving me now is,its not possible for me to have PCOS and have a constant menstrual..."

Answer is, if and only if it is base on severity,as I asserted formerly. And if you are having a normal menstrual cycle when diagnosed to have had a polycystic ovarian condition, it may simply:

1) Not as severe as expected for one having a normal polycystic ovarian syndrome.

2) probably not in association with other subfertility problems such as high blood prolactin or high or low blood thyroid hormones or endometriosis etc.

3) not actually PCOS but was wrongly diagnosed that it was,or any some of sort by cystic.

Every reproductive cycle in an adult female contains cyst that in toto may break down into corpus luteum. These forms by function are normal. But in the case of PCOS,it is abnormal and may not really breakdown,resulting in elongation of the cycle than expected. But in one having having a normal ovulation that precedes a regular menstruation experience and still have PCOS is damn rare. Infact,the truth is not all the cycle roots from ovulation.

Continue with the use of Licorice plant cause your ovulation is under prediction, it comes and go but you may not know...

Now tell me,how did you know you have PCOS when you are experiencing a normal menstrual cycle?
