hello , I have been facing hard times lately ,
this infertility has bring me down completely ,
life means nothing to me again, I hate to be in a pity and sorry state in life , I have thought to put a stop to the life in me , or na my sins worst past ni , I nearly swallowed poison this morning,
I only have my mum's pity at heart .

pls dont. we all have been tru tots like that, but suicide isnt an option at all.
1. are u sure of ur reception/how life at the other side is?
2. people wud even abuse u more in death for being a super foolish woman for commiting suicide for ordinary childlessness....when u can adopt, surrogacy, ivf etc.
3. try n pray and give ur self hope, ttc can be overcome. so many protocols have been listed here, make a habit of trying each one at every for 3 or 4month b4 giving up and moving to the next, it gives u something to look forward to, and trying something new always helps, remaining sad and not doing anything new, doesnt help at all, if you look, most women who concieved, always have a WIDD / what i did differently.

on a lighter note, if after all these u still want to end ur life/tired of life...there are so many options which you can use to go in grand style/be useful to mankind grin grin

1. so many people are looking for oragns, kidney/liver/spleen etc...on fb a woman has been on the wait list for kidney for 6yrs now, you could offer up your organs to the living who are in need of organs.

2. so many life saving drugs are being produced, but finding human test subjects is not easy, u cn also offer up urself to the pharmaceutical companies for such.

mek i stop here, but so many options plenty, maa'm wipe ur tears, praise God, go to a good hospital run tests ur n ur dh or better still post ur results here, we will advice you accordingly..... ignorance and unwillingness of couples to try new things is the major reason why many couples are still ttc.

@ redeemed soul. I will not sugarcoat, I will be as plain and as practical as I can get, if u like vex I don't care.
This ur life u want to end who told you have the right to do so? Did u create urself; do u know how and when you were formed in ur mother's womb. You have no right whatsoever .
The last time i asked u said u were 24+ years old and truth be told you are still very very young, why this kind of desperation? . You also said you are not married yet. So wheres the pressure coming from , is it coming from ur boyfriend or fiance so that he can marry you if u get pregnant? And if eventually you get pregnant, is it in your power to sustain the pregnancy and have a happy married life?
What's the rush, what's the desperation , what exactly is it? If u r Christian this is the time to pray seriously, get busy , get something doing and commit ur future into God's hands . This is about my 5th year in marriage, yes I get emotionally drained once in a while and most mamas feel same here but we all pick ourselves up and keep living. Suicide is out of the question pls.

Good morning house,
Pls I have a quick question. Would you recommend TVS or just regular pelvic uss? I have Pcos and my doctor is trying to do some infertility checks. I wouldn't like to waste money doing the 2, so I'll like to go for the most detailed one pls. Any comment will be appreciated pls. Echo scan in Abuja charges 5k for tvs as opposed to the 3k for pelvic uss(maybe it's more expensive cos it's better?).

TVS is always better as it is detailed. Go for TVS.

MamaTB n mummykyrti , seconded but many people out there do not know that depression and suicidal thoughts is real. It happens. Believe it or not. One lovely big sis I told then that I was depressed, told me that born again Christians cannot or is it shouldn't get depressed. Lolz. I was already born again.

When one gets to this stage, they are not seeing any future. They can't see past today.
The devil makes us focus on the now alone and we forget that there is a brighter tomorrow at the end of the dark tunnel. What they need is caring and also provoking talk showing them that light. And prayers plus follow up. God help us all.

Olaoriginal ... guy, na forever living products you dey pm me for abi?
Na only me you wan market the product give? grin
Oya post am here make those few who wan buy buy, u hear? I no buy sha and my pm doesn't work...

I haven't mention any product but u r quick to say what d bible said 'a man will give only what he has'. Ain't u?
I am not just a fan of forever living products, I am a testimony. It has been my saviour from what general hospital don't help me. Also, many TTC mamas have conceived after using d products without further medication or treatment(I witness this not "what they said"wink.
I am not against prayers because not all d cases r medical, besides I am spiritual too. But what I want u to know is that, devils(witches and co) don't have any power to stop u from conceiving, they enchant u to go against God. Because they know d punishment for each action and inactions, they then report and get permission to torment.
So when u pray, God will send help in any form (like me telling u about a product). After reading this post, u will agree that some people will conceive after detoxification, some after they bring their weight down and some need further assistance.
I copied this from trusted source. read!

Infertility affects about 10% of couples in their reproductive age. Approximately one-third of infertility cases can be attributed to a fertility issue with the woman; one-third with the man; and one-third with either both partners or the cause of the infertility is never found.

People shouldn't assume that they or their partners are infertile until they've tried and failed to conceive for at least 6 months if the female partner is 35 years or older, or for at least one year if the female partner is less than 35 years of age. If you are still unable to get pregnant after this time, check with your doctor. Fortunately, it's not uncommon for couples to suddenly conceive a child after years of trying unsuccessfully without treatment.

Causes
Infertility in both women and men can be caused by a variety of medical conditions and problems.

Causes of infertility in women include:

age
chlamydia and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
damaged ovaries
blocked fallopian tubes
hypothyroidism (a thyroid disorder)
endometriosis (a condition where cells from the womb lining are found outside the womb)
polycystic ovary syndrome
scarring in the uterus
fibroids (benign smooth-muscle tumours of the uterus)
congenital diseases like cystic fibrosis
excessive exercise (leading to missed menstrual periods)
anorexia or bulimia
frequent changes in weight
damage to the cervix (e.g., through an abortion or dilatation and curettage [D&C])
Infertility may seem more common these days because more people are choosing to have children later in life. But because women are less fertile as they age, women in their late 30s and early 40s naturally have a harder time conceiving, even with treatment. Although 25% to 50% of women dealing with infertility are found to have at least some traces of endometriosis upon examination, it is not known in some cases if this is the cause of the infertility.

Some women suffer repeated miscarriages, which are often due to immune problems, genetic problems, hormonal problems, or occasionally, a uterus that is slightly misshapen. Occasionally, the man's sperm is unable to penetrate the woman's egg, but there is a treatment for this which requires in-vitro fertilization (IVF).

Hyperprolactinemia is another possible cause of infertility in women. This is an excess of the hormone prolactin, which normally stimulates breast milk production in women. High prolactin levels can interfere with ovulation and menstruation. Stress, marijuana, and hypothyroidism are among the factors believed to contribute to high prolactin levels. Certain prescription medications can also cause an elevated prolactin level. Rarely, it may be caused by a very small tumour in the pituitary gland of the brain that is easily treated with medication.

Women may also be concerned that having used birth control pills, vaginal rings, patches, and injections could possibly make them less fertile after they have stopped using them. There is no evidence that using birth control pills, vaginal rings, or patches increases the risk of infertility; however, you may want to delay trying to get pregnant for at least one menstrual cycle after stopping these medications. This is to help you get the cycle restarted even though your periods were regular when you were using these birth control methods. However, if you had irregular or infrequent periods before you began taking birth control pills or any one of these hormonal methods of birth control, your periods are likely to go back to the way they were. That is, if you were having periods every 1 to 2 months or so, the pattern will restart itself and return.

Using intrauterine devices (IUD) has also not been shown to increase the risk of infertility in women. Some women who use injection birth control methods (progesterone injections) may notice that it may take almost a year for their periods to restart and for fertility to return. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about whether infertility may result from your method of birth control and if so, how long this time may be.

Causes of infertility in men include:

hormone disturbance
smoking
overheating of the testicles caused by exercise, hot water, tight clothing, excessive sitting (truck drivers) and other conditions and situations
cancer medications and radiation therapy
mumps after puberty
STIs
anatomical abnormalities of the genitals such as undescended testicles
use of some medications, such as some for high blood pressure, some antidepressants, and male hormones
genital injury
prostate surgery
varicose veins in the testicles
excessive alcohol
intercourse problems such as premature withdrawal or poor timing with their partner's menstrual cycle
spinal cord injury
genetic abnormalities
urinary tract infection
cystic fibrosis
illicit drug use (e.g., using cocaine, smoking marijuana)
opiates
steroids
Some men are more prone than others to infertility problems. These factors contribute to the risk of infertility:

diabetes
poor nutrition
smoking (lowers sperm count and reduces erections)
hot baths
being very overweight or underweight
The environment may also affect fertility. Sperm counts are going down in industrialized countries due to unknown environmental factors.

@Ayauche i remember oh,and na you be celebrant na you go provide the cake(s)...
@curvilicious,don'despair,keep hope alive.
@Redeemedsoul,you have heard it all,but let me chip this in.In a episode of the season movie "hustle"one young girl wanted to be an actress,she traveled to the big city and auditioned for so many roles,she wrote letters to many producers and directors but they kept giving her false hope.She waited for years and told herself she was getting old,one evening,in despair,she went to a place where she could get a view of the city,she listened to the sounds and watched the sights and taking her last breathe,she flung herself from the city top to her death.She had written a suicide note before leaving her apartment.The next day,wen a requiem was been arranged for her a letter came in from one of the biggest producer at that time calling her for a role..if only she had held on for one more day...
I keep saying that there is more to life and marriage than children.If you think i am lying,ask those who have children but their husbands have kicked out,ask those who have kids but there is always squabbles in their home.For what it is worth,whatever situation you find yourself now might be the reason you are still alive.
Many of our sisters here even the guest and those that peep in if they tell you how many years they have been married,you will hide your face and sit in one corner.Your prayer should be "father,settle all that concerns me quickly".My dear,wen there is life there is hope,this life you want to take people are begging God for one day at a time.By the way which poison did you want to use this morning?pls,send it to me,i had an invasion of cockroach yesterday in my house.
