Folash, thanks. I've heard about gbagada General hspt, esp for pregnant women. Hubby has a phobia for gen hsptls cos of the blood donation they ask from the husbands grin .
Lemme just jejely go with parkland esp since they av gyneas on call for longer periods.

Ok then, parklande is also very good.

Same thing happened to me 2015. My LL's wife put to bed and my neighbor decided that it was an opportunity for her to poke her nose in my biz. To b honest,when she asked me why "they had not seen big stomach", I was too shocked to give her the comeback she deserved. This is someone that our interaction is limited. Hubby was mad and wanted to call her hsb to warn her. I honestly wish she'd pull d stunt ur neighbor pulled so that she can enjoy the tongue lashing that hubby will give her.
D day my FIL's sister drew me aside to recommend her "wooli" for me, it was my MIL that saved her from hubby's vex. grin
Afi wooli naa smiley I dunno y people just don't like to mind their business. All I know is that it's all for a bigger testimony. We shall all laugh in the end.

Hi, this is Favour from Maryland Lagos. I was so much flabbergasted when I received the message you sent to me this morning. Iam very acquainted with many known business development outfit at mende Maryland Lagos. In this 21st century it is expected that people should analyze facts appropriately before disseminating them.
Firstly, Mende Maryland is a busy area with no lonely building as the area is already developed and well secured. Secondly, The guy in question who alerted you of the claimed criminal act came down on his own, if at all he knows mende well. If you know the place why don't you take police there, and before you do that, make sure you have concrete evidence to back your claims, because they reserve the right to sue you for character deformation and disseminating wrong information to the general public. Beware of false information as people do not go free these days for saying anything they wish!

Hello noble ppl of this thread.
Pls I'll need a medical practitioner here to help me translate this result of SFA.
I have tried reading online and watching YouTube videos, but none I've found tells me specifics, here's the result:
Colour: greyish
Volume: 3.6million/ml
Count: 72.4 million cells/ml
Morphology: 65% normal forms, 35% abnormal forms
Motility: 25% active, 55% sluggish, 20% non-motile
Keep up the good work/spirit of support and togetherness

ur result appears fair, am guessing the 3.6m for vol is a typo from ur end or the lab, sfa volume is usually from 1ml to 5ml, ie 1/2 teaspoon to 2 table spoons, so the 3.6m doesnt make sense. ur morph is ok, its motility that needs working on.
you can start taking fertile aid motility boost alone for that, in the short term..coffe/cafeine works to give the spermies a lil extra energy...so taking 1 cup of coffee 1hr b4 kpekus would help.
also try and take anti oxidants/larginine......forever living has a product rich in anti oxidants its called argi, its in a powdery form, try that or any other antioxidant u know.

basically, you shudnt be worried abt ur spermies,,, the nos u hv is enuff to give woman belle. what of ur dw..has she been checked, how many yrs ttc etc


@curvymami and mummykryti our kpekus ambassadors, i throway salute o grin grin

@Folash, sometimes, ppl that tell u abt TTC are not as evil minded as we think. Some might recommend things DT u dont know exist like my colleague that recommended doctors that solved her own problem. Another colleague of mine told me of another colleague DT uses herbal, DT I can stylishly ask her to introduce me to d herbal woman.

When you think too much abt TTC, everybodys comment will seem like an insult. My own hubby can smell the insult from afar. I think it was one of the reasons he dealt with the church member...cos she said he should have been carrying her baby by now, not another person s child. When friends and family call him and tell him DT they hope d wifey has started vomiting or pushing her belly, he gets so angry. I've told him its a normal question, so he shld stop reacting or feeling bad .

I just remembered anoda med that was part of the protocol- birth control pills for 3 months. My dear, I believe I would have been successful because my friend that was given similar dose by the doctor took in...I had to stop because I developed some issues, not caused by the protocol though. PCOS is a bastard but we would overcome it. Meanwhile, try doing a hormonal profile to check your FSH levels and others.

Congrats to Olaedo, your WIDD is a unique one. I wish you a happy and healthy pregnancy experience.

You can try inositol, ovaboost,metformin n pregnacare or fertile aid. With that u will ovulate naturally. Stay away from sugar n carbon. Eat healthy. Ur egg quality will improve n of course metformin will keep your sugar level down also producing

Enh enh, thanks for the update o.

So you are saying mertformin and oral contraceptive pills for three months, after which you would now try clomid abi?

It is well, I've been taking mert since december. I am considering to continue to take it till probably April before trying the clomid again and this time around, I am likely to increase the dosage to 150 mg since the 100mg I have used so far has not worked.

Please what is the role of the pills in the treatment?

Mamas, i stopped using my medications when i went on vacay late january. Now ive missed my period for 12days today which is really late. Seeing that my cyclebis usually 30-33 days max. I took urine test today and its negative. Im cery scared to do a blood test because ive seen too many negative results to last a lifetime. Can d drugs i skipped cause my cycle to be unusually long


I an feeling pains in ovaries intermittently . I also have pains in my thighs. I had a cyst in december and i got my period in january even with the cyst. Im super confused and frustrated.

The birth control pills was given to me to regulate my cycle...however if u have a clockwork cycle, you can ignore it. If you can slowly increase to 1500, then do so because that is the dose my gyny liked to work with. That drug no be here oo. Taking till april is cool, then stimulate with clomid. If you did 100mg of clomid the last time, you can up to 150mg daily when you want to start clomid again. Or on the alternative, try letrozole. It seems to work better for PCOS women. May God grant us our heart desires,amen.

Thanks mama,
Would I be combining all these drugs? My guess is that i need one of the ovaboost, pregnacare or fertile aid abi? I have also heard of M2Tone. Pls which of these is the most affordable since I guess it's going to be a daily drug.

I read that mertformin works same way as inositol...that is to reduce insulin resistance.

What is your previoys diagnosis? My sister, i totally feel your pain as im almost in the same situation. I just feel that since you have missed your period for that long and all tests are negative , you should probably use the drug and get your period so you can begin another round. Its devastating but with God, we will surely overcome this trial!

Amin o. It is well. I'd try increasing to 1500mg again and see the effect on me if I don't get nauseated up and down vomitting again.

I have read nice reviews about letrozole. Pls what is the dosage for inducing ovulation?

Regular menses for where? I can't even remember when last I did menses on my own. Maybe 2010 or 2011. Usually I have had to induce using duphaston or primolut N. Maybe I would use that again when I want to induce. I dey fear using birth control pills, just in case my body decides to ovulate on its own with this merformin I am using. I have read of people that took in after using mert for about three months.

Anistef , have you had such a long cycle before? You said you are feeling symptoms of pregnancy. Pls hold on from taking the period inducing drugs. Who knows if you're pregnant but baby is yet to show. Have you done a very recent scan? Same thing happened to Iomoge2. I think she missed her period for like 3months or so. I think she even started taking drugs to induce it. Then discovered she was pregnant. If its not a regular occurrence, still wait a bit.

Modified - she actually missed it for two months and was about to start inducing it before she got her bfp. Had to go and read it again.

Cubes01 , me and you dey the same ship now o. 12days since missed period. I dey wait, dey look, dey believe.

No it's not normal in all cases and people should actually know where to draw the line.
Am not totally against people giving u advise or showing some concern while TTC; my grouse is when it is coming from almost a total stranger. From the scenarios u gave, the people you mentioned are somewhat close to you, and if that's the case, then it might probably be fine.
TTC is a very sensitive issue and I feel it's not in some people's place to come out and "advice" you no matter how genuine it seems.

Treating PCOS, pregnancare alone can't help. Ovaboost will help with egg quality infact the major ingredient in Ovaboost is Inositol. Inositol does the following reduces insulin resistance, reduces testosterones (a male hormone ),less unwanted hair, increases chances of ovulation, higher egg quality, lower chances of gestational diabetes, lowers cholesterol ,controls weight etc

The fertility combo by fairhaven for PCOS is fertile aid,ovaboost and Inositol. But some people complain of fertileaid messing up their cycle. So u can substitute fertile aid for pregnacare to achieve faster result.

For metformin, it's a thing of choice. Metformin works faster when u get the right dose for body n eating clean with exercise n it reduces insulin. It can be combined with the fertility combo. Although I stand to be corrected.

If u are in lagos ,fertile aid products can be gotten for 10k


Alternatively, bitter leaf n letrozole with follicle monitoring. If injection is needed u will be told.
