Problem known they say is problem half solved. I believe the tubes to be open. Adhesion sometimes doesn't allow the dye get down to the area think more of passing through. Now you have known, you need to invest on enzymes, Chinese teas, castor oil and fertility massage. It's this adhesion that make people not want anything surgery. Remain strong and take a step each day to remove the adhesion. If you can, you may consider surgery, else keep up with the message and enzymes. There still exist our God of surprises.

Good day Dr. I really need help. My marriage of 12 years just crashed due to TTC. I had a myomectomy but was informed that not everything were removed due to adhesion/complications. My period is no longer regular, had a high prolactin. Pls can u tell me what to do at least to be healthy. Firstly to treat the prolactin and secondly to suppress the remaining fibroids. I can't afford to go under d knife again. I'm in my 40s and I prefer natural treatment, I'm tired of taken drugs. Thanks and God bless

Sorry for your ordeal. May God see you through.
Ketogenic diet is low carb n will detox ur body. Giv it a try. depending on the size though n combine with other complimentary things like castor oil massage, turmeric n Black pepper in food daily,
For high Prolactin dostinex works good.

@adunola03 I think your doc is on right track about a repeat. I understand it's extra expense for you but it's for the best. From the result, all except progesterone is out of range. And doctor should be wondering how you ovulate with those ranges thus a repeat.
But if I may ask, which cycle day did you take the test? Did you take all same day? Were you on any medication? Please go ahead and repeat as adviced to enable the doc profer right treatment plan. Fertility dust

Good evening mamas, please abeg help me analyze this my hormonal assay result o. I just tire my gyne says the result are ambiguous. He says my LH,FSH cannot be high and the progesterone should be normal...
CC ekashiloh, cuppymummy, tripletwins222 and other mamas should help o b4 I start having panic attack. Google is not helping at all.
My sister, make I talk true, I no sabi interpret hormone profile. But looks like something that can easily be sorted out. They say LH and FSH should be about the same value. Your prolactin is on the high side of normal. I'm guessing no harm in reducing it a little.

Medication I used before my hormones balanced out-
Bromocriptine (not for long because of the side effects)

Afterwards I switched to Fertilaid

Then Omega 369 to help keep the hormones balanced.

Please always follow your doctor's advice.

omonikiba:
Long time people. Waoo waoo, however is everyone doing? Thanks Safe06 for the mention. Just wanted to check who mentioned me and saw you did. I really wish I can post like before and read updates. Hmmm.

I just want to encourage everyone waiting to make use of this waiting time well. Soon, you won't have time to sleep ooo just like me. I used to think 24 hours is to much for a day, no 24 hours is so small for a day. Rest well now, buy your baby stuffs now, do all do-ables now.


No matter the challenges, surely as God lives, they all will come to pass. No one will remain in the same position forever. People who used to be here 2012, 2013 , 2014 know me with high prolactin and low sperm count issues, now it's a thing of the past. God has blssed us with children. We have even stopped thinking of giving birth because we are happy and okay with the ones He has Blessed us with.

You may want to ask? How did we treate the low count, yes we tried all we could, I used so many drugs, eat veggies and fruits, Hubby also used this and that to boost his count, he even scheduled having one surgery to remove what was blocking sperm (have forgotten all those nonsense names of all diagnosis). Out of fear he refused and wanted icsi instead.

While we were planning icsi and travelling for it God did the did it. Now, it's all in the past, I can't even remember all those pains anymore. One sincere prayer I used to pray then was, Lord please remember you don't work with multitudes, you need very little to work with, Lord use my husband's little sperm to do wonders. All the drugs he used never changed anything, but God heard us.

Someone here will soon forget her ugly experiences and stories. Someone will soon praise and sing aloud of God's faithfulness.


Just keep calm, your time is now.
Omonikiba thanks for coming back to share your testimony with us. This is a dream come true and I rejoice with you and your family and I key into this blessing.

I've followed your ttc journey on this thread even before joining Nairaland officially. Somehow I never got to read your testimony until now. It means so much to many of us on this thread.

This is a confirmation of God's word to me concerning our struggle with low sperm count. The prayer you mentioned is the exact prayer I've been praying lately since God showed me that many times He works with little not with large numbers to demonstrate His Mighty Power.

Praise be to God!

Staph can be very stubborn. Doctors say it doesn't affect conception, but I personally disagree.
I will advise she goes either the injection pattern or go herbal.

I was reading a very interesting book whlist in transit. Somewhere between getting off the taxi that took me to my final destination and checking into my room,i lost my book. I combed my hotel room from bottom to top, looking . I went to the lobby of the hotel , perhaps i had left it there when i was checking in . Alas no luck . I tried to look for the cab that brought me to the hotel but it didnt yield any result .so i said a prayer, asking God to help me find the book. everyday ,i would go to the reception to ask if any of the hotel staffs had come across the book . But the answer remained No
I didnt stop praying about it even though as days went by i felt i wouldn't ever find the book. The hotel people changed my room day 3 . I asked the staff in charge of maintenance when i moved room to pls keep checking for me. Yet nothing . As i departed the city after 6 days i gave up on the book. I decided to buy another . I said, maybe God, you dont hear prayers anymore. Day 9, i received a call from the friend who booked my room in the hotel. The hotel called him to ask if his friend had left any book in their room.

Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by mumihaja(f): 3:39pm On Mar 01, 2018
here are some vital infos

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
NAC + Clomid: Women with PCOS are often prescribed the medication Clomid to help force ovulation. Another procedure that may be suggested is ovarian drilling which medically removes the string-of-pearl-like cysts that line the ovaries. For women who have had ovarian drilling and have not responded to Clomid alone (are clomiphene citrate resistant), a combination of NAC and Clomid may be suggested. Here’s why…

NAC when taken with Clomid has in studies significantly:

encouraged ovulation
improved progesterone levels mid-luteal phase
improved endometrial lining thickness
increased pregnancy rates
lowered chances of miscarriage
NAC & Insulin Resistance: A 2011 report published in the European Journal of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology showed that female study participants who took NAC, responded equally as well as those who took Metformin alone. The women who took NAC showed positive weight changes (reduced BMI), improved fasting insulin levels and free testosterone which resulted in reduced hirsutism and regular monthly menstrual periods.

Recurrent Miscarriage Prevention
In a controlled study from 2008, 80 participants with a history of recurrent miscarriage took NAC and folic acid and another aged-matched group of 86 participants took folic acid alone. Results of the study showed that taking NAC along with folic acid “caused a significantly increased rate of continuation of a living pregnancy up to and beyond 20 weeks… and was associated with a significant increase in the take-home baby rate as compared with participants taking folic acid alone.”

Detoxification
NAC boosts Glutathione production in the body. Glutathione is known to be the only detoxifier of the:

toxic packaging materials styrene and polystyrene that are found in the molded outside housing of a computer and plastic parts on the inside of vehicles, plastic cups, toys, hair dryers, kitchen appliances and styrofoam
colorless gas methyl bromide used as a pesticide against spiders, mites, fungi, weeds, insects, nematodes, and rodents (In 2005, methyl bromide production and use was largely stopped because of its ability to destroy the ozone layer)
chemical methyl chloride that is used to make conventional decaffeinated coffee

Herbs to Promote Regular Menstrual Cycles

The following herbs would be used once the first menstrual period comes back or after performing a Fertility Cleanse.

Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus)
Shatavari helps to promote regular menstrual cycles by aiding in regulation of estrogen levels. Shatavari is also an adaptogen that supports endocrine system function for healthy hormonal balance.

Tribulus (Tribulus terrestris)
This herb has been shown to normalize ovulation in infertile women. Tribulus supports healthy hormone levels, is a known female reproductive system tonic and may increase libido.

Vitex (Vitex agnus-castus)
Vitex is another great herb for amenorrhea due to hormonal imbalance. It helps to balance the hormones while not containing any hormones within the herb. Vitex supports hormonal balance in the body by having an effect on the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis (hormonal feedback loop), correcting the problem at the source. There have been numerous studies showing the effectiveness of vitex for all types of menstrual cycle irregularities when used for many months consistently.

Vitex has been found to help normalize ovulation, improve a short luteal phase, support healthy hormone levels and reduce Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).

Studies have shown vitex extremely helpful in bringing back the menstrual cycle in women with absent periods due to eating disorders and lack of menstruation due to breastfeeding. We do not advise weaning a baby until they are over a year old. For mothers of older babies who are ready to try to conceive again, and still have yet to begin menstruating, vitex is a safe option.

Herbs to Bring on Menstruation

The following herbs may help to bring on a menstrual period. All the herbs in this section will only be effective if the menstrual period is absent due to hormonal imbalance. If the menstrual cycle is absent due to nutritional deficiencies, these herbs may not be as effective. It is very important that diet changes are in place before beginning any herbs to bring back the menstrual cycle.

Black Cohosh root (Actaea racemosa)
Black cohosh has been used for hundreds of years to help bring back the menstrual cycle. Black cohosh promotes regulation of the entire menstrual cycle while helping to support a calm uterus.

Dong Quai root (Angelica sinensis)
This is the main herb for this issue. Dong Quai works by promoting blood flow to the pelvis where it helps support the body to bring back an absent period. It does this by nourishing the blood (it is in nearly all Chinese herbal blood-building formulas because it is iron rich), improving hormonal regulation, and aiding in uterine tone.

Motherwort aerial parts (Leonurus cardiaca)
This herb is very effective at reducing uterine muscle spasm, cramping and improving uterine tone. Motherwort has been found to mildly stimulate the uterus, while also aiding the uterus to work efficiently, which is helpful in bringing on menstruation.

White Peony (Paeonia officinalis)
This herb helps build the blood and increase circulation to the reproductive organs. Overall, White Peony provides excellent hormone balancing support and aids in pain reduction and relaxation. White Peony moves the blood in the pelvic area offering support for uterine stagnant conditions including absent period.

Hello house, it's a nice job that you've all been doing and thanks for keeping this thread alive.

A friend has issues with low sperm count and he was placed on the following drugs :-

1. Dr quick
2. Addyzoa
3. Proviron
4. Bitter plus bitter (incase he has infections)
5. Vitamin E

Want to ask if the drugs are okay or if he'll need to add more drugs to the combination.

Also, he also wants to know if it's advisable to go for iui/ivf or other means in order to have a baby and where it can be done cheaply,thanks.

I know proviron and addyzoa come highly recommended. I've heard about the Dr quick too.
