There are options available for both AS couples to use and have normal kids. But these options are not cheap and involves a lot of emotional commitment and religious believes. 1. PGD - I will break it down - During IVF, the fertilized embryos will be Gene tested for Sickle Cell. The ones that passed will be implanted and if a pregnancy is achieved, the baby will be okay. Note that IVF/PGD success rate is less than 40%. This procedure will cost more than a million naira with a very low success rate. 2. CVS - This procedure is carried out during the 8th week of pregnancy to determine if the fetus has Sickle Cell gene. The test cost about N250k to N500K depending on where you do it. LUTH is about N300k. As christians, please note that termination is a mortal sin and I do not advise that. 3. Bone marrow transplant - It can be done after the baby has been born and reached a certain age. A donor is gotten most times from the siblings and the procedure is not done here in Nigeria. It cost about 30,000 Euro in Europe to do. 4. Get married and use a donor sperm of AA or Donor Egg of AA to get pregnant. In this way, you have eliminated having SS kids. But the child biologically wont be from one of you. The question is, can your wife agree to carry another person's egg? Or can you allow another person's sperm to be used? Most times, a donor egg is used so that both couples will have a sense of involvement. The sperm is from the you and your wife carried the baby to full term even though the egg is not hers, but carrying the pregnancy and giving birth to the baby will create a special bond between her and the baby. 5. Do not give birth to any child. Simply adopt. There are other procedures that a being developed abroad to achieve SS cure. I believe in a couple of years to come a breakthrough will be announced. It is not easy to end a relationship! 3 Likes |

Cheato64:First I'll advise you rerun the test in another hospital. Second, your last line shows how ignorant you're about sickle cell. You can have 2kids and they'll be both sicklers. There are tests done to determine the genotype of the developing foetus but why would one want to go through such stress that can be avoided. 2 Likes |

Cheato64: It's BIG TROUBLE if you chose to go ahead, especially if you live in Nigeria. Both of you would be unhappy for a long long time. Your kids may not forgive you for being selfish. Like someone said, visit sickle cell clinics and see for yiurself. However, If you live elsewhere, say UK/US, i know its POSSIBLE to go ahead and have healthy children. I have seen scd patients who look healthier than some of us. 1.With IVF technique you could screen out embryos with sickle gene and implant only the normal ones. Very expensive, even with insurance. Not happening presently in Nigeria, as a treatment option. 2.With natural insemination, prenatal screening can be done at 16wks of pregnancy to determine genotype of the developing baby, andif SCD, decisions can be taken from there.. Not yet happening in Nigeria as a treatment option 3. A child with SCD can have bone marrow transplant before development of complications and with good medical care live a healthy life. A couple of successful cases have been done in UBTH with good outcome, i'm not sure if its still happening, considering the geometrically progressive decline in hospital infrastructure. Its very expensive, and with attendant complications. All in all, its not worth the anxiety and stress that comes with it. Its up to you.. 2 Likes |

Listen to your friend bruv, he loves you. Two years is nothing....I know people with 3-4 years relationship that we have urged to quit it when the S-gene got involved. You are just looking ato the S-gene as something to play with.... you don't know the S stands for Superman....if you try it not only will the two of you have risked your futures but your kids as well.... 1 Like |

Smellingrillmea:When the baby had not formed was before fertilization. Once the ova is fertilized, you have a baby at it's earliest stage of development, at this point, there is no moral justification to terminating it as that would be tantamount to murder. If you can't prevent the fertilization from happening, forget it. 1 Like |

Sorry about your pain. I can tell you that it is better to quit a relationship now rather than bring children to the world who will have sickle cell disease. The pain and trauma will be too much in the future. For your own education people with AS also have their own issues. People who are AS (also known as sickle cell traits need to be mindful of their own health. Recent research shows that "Sickle cell trait symptoms Unlike the more serious sickle cell disease, SCT generally causes no symptoms. Most people with the condition have no direct health consequences due to the disorder. Some people with SCT can have blood in their urine. Because blood in the urine can be a sign of serious condition, such as bladder cancer, it should be checked out by a medical professional. Although it’s rare, people with SCT can develop symptoms of sickle cell disease under extreme conditions. These conditions include: increased pressure in the atmosphere, such as with scuba diving low oxygen levels, which can occur while performing strenuous physical activity high altitudes dehydration Athletes with SCT need to take precautions when performing. Staying hydrated is extremely important.[center][/center] you can read more on this from this website https://www.healthline.com/health/sickle-cell-trait#symptoms 1 Like |

Cheato64: I just saw this post now. If you are rich, you have a chance of marrying OMA. Their is selective IVF that you can choose the blood group and sex of your baby before transfer. Go to any specialist fertility clinic near you and confirm about this service and the cost. If your finances can carry multiples of it, then you can go ahead. Else, it I a big No. Have you seen a sickler have crisis? Ask any of their parents. The pain is too much. The emotional trauma is also horrible for the parents. It can happen even 2am. And after suffering all that for years, 90% of them die b4 21 years. 1 Like |

10 years and I'm still in relationship limbo because of genotype. Wedding was cancelled because of genotype test. In hindsight, I would advise any couple who have found true love to go for PGS. This would be my biggest regret of the last decade, as it's been an uphill task finding a good AA woman amongst the limited women available now. However, I believe I will find the right AA woman someday. Always ensure you check your genotype early and go for PGS if you can afford it, so you don't end up loveless and lose the love of your life like me. Hope this helps someone else. 2 Likes |

MISSCONGENIALITY: Not all Nigerian know that they are even AS or even AA. I am actually an AA but many people think I am SS because I use to get sick a lot when I was younger.
