joesQ: goodmorn dr thx for ur reply,pls can one conceive with this?or shld one go for surgery to get rid of d fibroid b4 trying to conceive.op to hear from soonYou can attempt to conceive. Many women were been able to conceive in the presence of bulky fibroid in their womb. But remember that fibroid can also cause infertility. If your attempt at conceiving fails, meet you gynaecologist. |
omo harry: Dr. thank you for your free consultancy services.I discovered a lump on both side of my breast recently from a health centre.I want to go for check up. but i m affraid.meanwhile prior to this time, i have been having mensural inbalance and menorriagia of which my gyno had to put me on medication (primolut)do i have cos to be affraid?could it be benign or malignant lump? i m 31 yrs old.Also from the screening i was told i have HPV.I m very surprise becos i hv not been sexually active for years.i was told that i need a vaccine to prevent it from becoming cancer,but on the internet, i am made to understand that vassine is only for YOUND LADIES THAT HAVE NOT CONTACTED THE VIRUS.WHT DO U THINK IS THE RIGHT APPROACH TO GET RID OF THIS SINCE MY LOW IMMUNE SYSTEM CANNOT FIGHT IT.Very confuse here.Visit a general surgeon. He may have to remove the lump in your bre.ast and subject it to histology. Only histology will determine if the lump is benign or malignant. I expect the lump to be benign. Mennorhagia is a technical term. Can you give me a vivid description of your menstruation in terms of days, number of pads used in a day, how soaked are those pads. Do you observe any blood clot? There is vaccine for HPV, but it is only for people that has not been exposed to the infection. Some serotypes of HPV are risk factor for the induction and progression of cervical cancer. |
Igbos should confront the Ijaws the way we confront Hausas/Fulanis and Yorubas. They need to get Yoruba treatment on the social media networks. Appeasing Ijaws has never worked for us. Ijaws can either fear & love us OR they loathe us! Presently, they loathe us and our insistence on accomodating them in our big tent has failed! We can't pretend about our complicated relationship with them. The only way we can command their respect is by letting them know that we are not ready to appease them. I was forced to confront one high ranking official in Bayelsan government and challenged the lies he peddled about Igbos inside a car enroute to PH. I tore down his arguments and took him to the cleaners. He accused Igbos of controlling all the levers of power in GEJ government. He specifically mentioned Diezani Allison-Madueke. His lies and misinformations are so incredible that I have to break my silence to confront him. So I set about to disabuse his mind and that 4 other passengers with superior argument. I pity the man because he just can't measure up. Ijaws are not our friends. They fear and loathe Igbos. That fear has snowballed into paranoia with time. They look towards us as potential domineering big neighbour. Let us tell ourselves the truth |
My response to Stevecares is still hidden |
joesQ: hello Dr more grease to ur elbow for all uv been doing in this thread,pls il love if u can explain this ultra sound scan result:bulky uterus with AP diameter - 6.35cm.irregular serosal outline;anteverted in position.multiple intramural and subserosal fibroid nodes seen in the anterior and posterior myometrial walls with the largest measuring - 3.97 in long axis diameter.The cavity is empty and the endometrial stripe is thick and echogenic.The adxena are obscured by acoustic shadows.pouch of douglas is empty.op to hear from u soon.The ultrasound report is consistent with the diagnosis of subserosal fibroid. It was even mentioned in the radiologist report. |
Stevecares: Thank you doctor. I do really think I need to see a psychiatrist. What caused my panick disorder linguered on for too long. Am trying to put my self together now. The doctor ordered a malaria and typhoid test because I was having fever. Even my throat as i explained, i was feeling like there's lump of swallowed food that will not move down(no pain or swell, just inner feeling). The throat feeling started when I was greatly emotionally troubled(in deep tears) when all of a sudden as i was walking to a hospital because i was feeling hot and ill, suddenly i felt heavy on my right shoulder and then blockage in my throat. I was such in a sorry state. I keep drinking water all the time to loosen my throat, manytimes the feeling subside. This was last month early August. Now i don't feel the blockage as before. I was so scared i went for HIV test. It was Negative. Yet, am still scared and worried, like am going crazy. It all started when i mistaken had unprotected sex with my fiance(girl frnd). That same day, when she left, was when i had the panick attack(cos its against my faith and a sin). I was so deep in sorrow and repentant and anxiety of my wrong and the possibility of her getting pregnant. Few weeks past, nothing. She was not. My anxiety shifted to the possibiliy of her being HIV positive, because we hav been distant for a year. She went for the test on my request, she said it was Negative. But i was stil uncertain cos she confessed she cheated once(2 years ago)..which word added more to my heart pounding. Am such in a confused state. Thats the genesis of my fast heart beat and High BP together with my work stress and poor sleep. Now, I feel so different like am dying. Am on Lexotan, Asomex and Bisoprolol fumarate 5mg( a replacement to Corbis because i couldn't find it in the nearby pharmacy). Pls I advise me.These symptoms are non-specific and I cannot tie it to a particular disorder. They are collectively called somatization disorder by psychiatrists. Meaning that psychiatric disorder manifests as bodily symptoms. Pls meet a psychiatrist immediately. |
@Santagelo25, Sp.erm analysis on its own is insufficient reason to order for a testicular biopsy. There must be hormone analysis. I will tell you why this is important. There are 2 important areas in the production of male sex hormones in the body. They are the brain(hypothalamus and pituitary gland) and the testis. Hypothalamus produces the gonadotrophin releasing hormones(GnRH) which stimulates the pituitary gland to produce follicle stimulating hormones(FSH) and luteinizing hormones(LH). FSH and LH stimulates the testis. LH stimulates the Lehdig cells which produces testosterone, while FSH stimulates the Nurse cells which provides spermatozoa and substances that nourishes the sp.erm cells. So, it flows like this: GnRH--->FSH & LH--->Testosterone The level of each hormone in the system is tightly controlled through negative feedback mechanism. Therefore when the testosterone level is low in the system, a testosterone sensor in the brain will instruct the brain to produce more of FSH and LH to stimulate the testis to function in the production of more testosterone. If the testis fails to function, the LH level will double down with in the level of LH. The process continues till infinity. Thereby overflogging the testis. There is a level that FSH and LH will attain before we can safely say that there is primary testicular failure. Then the doctor is justified to perform a testicular biopsy. It's just like flogging a dead horse. So when the sex hormone analysis demonstrates very high level of FSH and LH in the presence of very low level of testosterone indicates primary testicular failure. Mind you that sex hormone analysis may also indicate if there is hormonal imbalance. This can be corrected and your fertility restored. Therefore, sex hormone analysis is imperative in the management of your condition. |
tokerom: Pls doctor, kindly explain....My result 4 HP is thus,Eupituitary means normal pituitary hormones. Ovulatory cycle is the period when ovulation occurs(when ova are shed from the ovary). It is exactly 14 days to the start of the next mestruation. Someone with 28 days menstrual cycle is expected to ovulate on the 14th day. The sp.erm cells count in your husband's eja.culate is normal and save for the morphology and motility of the spermatozoas, I wont expect him to experience the problem of male infertility. P.S: post the normal values besides the laboratory values next time. |
santagelo25: Thanks a lot for the advice.I really appreciate.As per regular unprotected intercourse for 3days in a week,i really can not assure you that.There are times that we stay without having intercourse for 2weeks on a stretch. I have stop taking the natural herbs after the medical doctor told us that i will have to go for biopsy.They did culture of my semen and found out that it is not infection of any kind.I did an operation some time in 1983,that resulted to my having 1 testicle.The doctor confirm that it has nothing to do with my semen and will not stop me from impregnating my wife.He said i have chance of fathering a child like every normal being as long as my semen is active.I confirm it on WEDMB to be true.Everything about my semen analysis is nil,zero...The IVF option is somehow expensive for my level.You should endeavour to have intercourse frequently. Especially during her ovulation period. There must be a reason behind the request by the gynaecologist for a testicular biopsy. The most plausible reason behind this investigation is testicular failure. That is why I would want to peep into the result of the investigation for the sex hormones assay(FSH, LH and testosterone). So can you be kind enough to post them? The history of surgery around your Instruments is very important to us because you might have had: 1. Chemical orchidectomy: Where an antibody produced against the removed testis, attacks with the viable testis. Thereby destroying its cells and rendering the non-functional, OR, 2. Vanishing testis syndrome: The operating surgeon might have mistakenly tampered with the blood supply to the viable testis. With time, the testis becomes smaller in size, then eventually becomes non-viable and forms a small ball of fibrous tissue. Was the surgery you performed in 1983 elective or emergency? If elective, did the surgeon request for se.men analysis prior to the surgery? Any remote evidence to suggest primary testicular failure can prompt the doctor to request for testicular biopsy. This is the investigation of the last resort. It might interest you to know that the biopsy is not necessarily aimed at helping you. It is just to confirm the doctor's suspicion of testicular failure and for documentation. If this is to be the case, then you may have to discuss the option of adoption with your wife. |
ijaw citizen: I'm starting a new thread titled "WHO SAYS THE IJAWS BETRAYED THE IGBOS DURING THE CIVIL WAR" Enough is enough for these igbos shouting everywhere that ijaws betrayed them.Pls do! I'm itching to join this debate |
Bisjosh: Please my dear people what could cause abnomal menstral cycle? This happened to my cousin today. She saw her period 2 weeks after the previousThere is nothing wrong with her. The panic is unwarranted. This might be a simple case of simple hormonal imbalance. Human body physiology is not perfect and it tends to vary from time to time. I will be most worried if this becomes a pattern. Presently, there is no cause for alarm |
riccobabe: Pls doctor,am having this white thick discharge(like a paste)n I don't know y.I gave birth to my baby in May,not sexual active yet,but am having dis thick discharge(that I noticed like two weeks now)and its itching too.pls wat can I use or do.By tradition, I would had advised you to meet a doctor. But I have to break from the tradition here and prescribe a medication for you. Mind you that it's unethical for a doctor to prescribe drug to a patient whom he did not examine. I hope that other doctors in the house will understand. Follow these instructions below strictly: Stop vag.inal douching with soaps, antiseptics or hot water. Use only lukewarm water from time to time to douch. Finally, buy mycoten cream and apply it to your private part liberally. Apply for atleast one month. |
santagelo25: Pls Doctor,we got married in 2010 and i and my wife have been believing God for a child.I have done fluid test in two different hospitals and the result shows that i have zero sperm count(azoospermia) and she did a test on her self which reveal that she has candida and cyst but the pelvic scan is ok.We have taken series of natural herbs from two different people which have not given us any positive result.I have been taking VitA, VitE, VitC drugs and some other prescribed drugs.We started the treatment this January 2012.I have done a lot of research on the internet too.I need a help because my mother and my mother-in-law have been worried.My wife keep reminding me of people that got married after us that have their own child while some are expecting their second child.The experience has been depressing and demoralising.Lest i forget,three different girls have taken-in for me on different occasion.We are dealing with the problem of infertility here. But, before I label it infertility, I hope that you've had a regular, unprotected intercourse of atleast 3 different days in a week for one year. If this criteria is not met, then I can't label your condition infertility. I must warn you to stop taking all the herbal concortions immediately. They might call it drugs or supplements. Just throw all of them into your waste bin. If the result of your se.men analysis is to be believed, then you have a problem which need to be corrected. Candida infection in your wife cannot cause infertility. Azoospermia is not the only information which may be of interest here. I will be interested in sex hormone assay. These sex hormones include FSH, LH, and testosterone. I want to determine if you have a case of primary testicular failure. I'm also interested in the breakdown of the se.men analysis. The following are normal parameters in se.men analysis: Semen volume(atleast 1.5ml) Spermatozoa count(atleast 20 million/ml) Spe.rm motility(atleast 60%) Morphology(60% normal forms) WBC count in se.men(none) There are some treatment options for you. But it depends on the cause of the infertility. The treatment is tailored to the cause. If some viable spe.rm cells can be salvaged from your eja.culate, then I suggest that you choose the option of In Vitro Fertilization(IVF). IVF is expensive, a session of IVF costs about N700K. The chances of conceiving in any session is 30%. If it fails, then you may have to repeat the session by paying another N700K. There are many IVF specialist in Nigeria, but I will recommend Prof. Onah for you. He is presently the HOD of Obstetrics and Gynaecologist in UNTH, Enugu and runs a successful private fertility clinic. You can come over to Enugu with your wife to meet him for him to plan and tailor your line of management based on the need of both of you. All the best. |
ayobarmy: Hi docs, pls my wife has been complaining of this pain in her lower abdomen anytime we have sex, it wasnt like that b4 ooo it started after she gave birth, pls what can be the cause and solution... Thanks and God bless......The pain might be psychological due to the trauma of child birth or due to her past experiences in life. Though it may have other causes. Meet a gynaecologist in any teaching hospital near you. All the best. |
Choicegirl: Hi Doctor, I have this burning sensation in my chest for over a week now. Makes me feel horrible. When I belch, it tastes horrible like I swallowed poison what could be the problem? Pls helpFrom your description of your condition, you may have a condition known to doctors as Gastro-esophageal reflux disease(GERD). It's a problem that primarily affect the oesophagus. Oesophagus is a hollow tube that connects your mouth to your stomach. There is a sphincter at the border between the oesophagus and the stomach. This prevents the stomach contents reflux to the oesophagus. Therefore, stomach content cannot gain access to the oesophagus. Besides, the surface of oesophagus and stomach are lined by different types of cells. The cells found on the surface of the stomach can withstand a high acidic environment, while the oesophagus cannot. When there is an incompetence/leakage at the sphincter/border between the oesophagus and stomach, the highly acidic content of the stomach gains access to the lower part oesophagus. This causes irritation and burning sensation on your chest. It's like swallowing an acid. You have to meet a gastroenterlogist in any teaching hospital near you. The treatment of your condition mimics the treatment of peptic ulcer. Just some minor adjustment. Cheers |

somalia3: no breakaway regions...they are all technically part of somalia...they are just autonomous...and not internationally recognized...Somaliland and Puntland are breakaway regions of Somalia. They have their own functional legal system, currency and military and are currently seeking for international recognition. War might breakout in Somalia if the Somali military tries to bring them back to the fold by force. |
Why does Sanusi wield so much power? Where are those powers when Soludo was at the helm? Is Sanusi really answerable to the president or himself? |

KingMEXX: Dear Doc, a frend of mine whom i ws discussin wit, told me his life story a few mnths ago. It goes like disMy response to this post will be brief because I am busy this morning. Yes, some forms of diabetes mellitus can be inherited. But there is nothing to fear. It is not a must for diabetes to manifest in all the siblings. Even those that inherited the gene for diabetes can avoid it by avoiding its risk factors such as alcohol, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, etc. Your friend should place himself on a healthy diet(dietary modification). Emphasis should be placed on fruity diets. Exercise for 30mins or more every 3 days. Avoid sedentary lifestyle. Shed some weights if he is obese. His Body Mass Index(BMI) should not be more than 25. >25 increases the risk of diabetes. BMI = weight(kg)/height(meter square). He can buy glucometer to monitor his blood sugar. Finally, he should pay a visit to an endocrinologist in a teaching hospital to assess his risk of developing diabetes. |
Congrats to Somalis. I hope that he will be acceptable to all including Al-shabab and breakaway regions. We long to see peace reign in that part of the world |

c.r.r.o:Come o, did u claim that you were born in UK? ![]() c.r.r.o:I swear with my 2 balls, my monthly salary and mama and by the amadioha shrine, that you have never crossed the gate of Ajegunle. Your Written English is too poor for someone who spent part of his life and mingled with the native English speakers in UK. I'm beginning to think that you have an underlying psychiatric disorder. You can fool everybody, but you can't fool me. I would have ignored you, but you pushed so hard on your Ikwerre claim that you activated my sensor. So I set about to investigate your claim. BTW, "o bialu be onye a biagbuna ya" was one of Igbo wise saying spoken to me by an Ikwerre woman whom I met in Bayelsa. I hand-picked the comment to test your Ikwerre claim hoping that you can easily translate it. But you failed woefully. Thereby exposing your fake azzzz. |

c.r.r.o:Kindly ignore my other comments and lay more emphasis on the bolded. ACM10: You are funny. You can't even spell the name of your local goverment correctly. I dey laff like the son of LG chairman. FYI, it's EMOHUA, not Emouha. I don't know why you should ask me to provide the list of the past LG chairmen. I can't even remember the ones from my LG. That's why I decided to ignore you. But I will give you two names. They are:I'm waiting. ![]() |
pazienza: Stop beating around the bush,do the translation and interpretation he required of you. Don't tell me you are trying to buy time,so as to get your ikwerre/igbo friends to do that for you.This is my problem with Yoruba fakers here. They will continue to beat round the bush till you get bored. I'm happy that you made the same observation. |
