Good morning fruitful mamas

Please don't read and jump pass.

Infections especially staph is one of the major culprits of low sperm count and low libido+ED in males.
It usually doesnt shoe up in urine culture..only in sfa.
U n ur dh shud get tested to rule out that wicked organism called staph.
New forms attack the males...n usually dont hv any serious symptom...apart from unexplained infertility.weak organ.low

Some hospitals treat IUI almost the same way they treat IVF, the exception is that they don't harvest the eggs for you. I saw menopur online for $349 for 10. if we use 367 per dollar, thats 128k for the ten and you will be given 5.
.
mama, i beg to disagree small..
i dont think its right treating iui same as ivf.ie as per drugs, ivf targets producing many eggs say 6 to 15eggs, iui only 2 to 4 eggs is needed, so why use AK 47 to kill mosquito? n risk hving quintuplets n sixtuplets..
ivf they hv the option of selecting the nos of eggs they want to fertilize, iui if you end up hving more than 6 mature eggs...any good hospital will likely cancel the procedure for that cycle to avoid wahala of quintuplets and more....

ordinary clomid/letrozole/taxo... could be given to the woman to stimulate egg production, since its only 2 to 4 eggs that r required.
then the sperm prep..am not sure that 39k is correct. sperm prep is similar to sfa prep and equipment..n sfa is 2k to 7k in most places.
a decent iui shudnt 150k in an average hospital, those lekki/ikoyi hospitals fir charge 500k and above...cos of cost of office space/land and overhead, i understand.

but lets be wary of too cheap places o. they usually bypass somany important steps, mek person no run from frying pan enter fire wey e dey find cheap thing..learnt ivf in ubth is abt 300k, but their success rate is low

thank u very much.if d FSH becomes normal is der a chance DAT he can produce sperm.
sure!!!.
all most every man with high fsh..has sperm issues, they go hand in hand.
like dr google said, the urologist shud concentrate on find the cause first and then take it from there, treating the fsh values to bring it down usually takes more time

cld varicocele also cause testicular failure,DH had a varicocele surgery to remove bilateral grade 4 varicocele n after DAT his FSH reduce abit to 17.8,do u tink der is any chanc of improvement.he kinda have zero sperms.
there is always chance for improvement, give it all you guys have got. though u guys needs loads of discipline and faith.
let him try the local herbs option too, guava leaves/honey/onion combos, in addition to the clomid and other supplements your doc may prescribe...try this for 6 to 12months consistently. research on TESE+IVF, that may be an option if the count come up a bit even if its 500k sperm cells

the variocle may hv been caused by trauma to the testicles many years ago..probablly when he was a teen or something.
people hv beat aids/cancer etc...e come be high fsh.
i hope he is the research type...cos its better if he is in charge, doing the research and trying out new stuff.

tank u so much,how do I get d fertilsan M,people say it is not been sold in Nigeria.do u mean DAT once d FSH is normal his sperm count will also improve.so sorry for disturbing u.pls I just need clarification
high fsh in males is usually linked to testicular problems - sometimes caused by trauma/mumps/cogential issues and associated low testerone.
docs recommend treating the cause and not the fsh values.
you may wish to google more....from the lil research i did, it appears his taking sperm boosting tabs usually dont achieve much. if funds isnt a problem..u can still go ahead with the fertilsan m its about 27 gbp/pack if you buy in the uk. and then find a way of shipping it down to naija. some sellers are also on nairaland you can search, i would hv a few packs for sale at a discounted price of 22k / pack to members of this thread next wk

God bless u for answering thank u so much,he has been working wit a urologist,b4 nw was placed on enhanz,vit c n E but after 3mths results we're still d same although his FSH had reduced from 23.5 to 17.8 so his urologist prescribed clomid n asked to continue wit his vitamins so I just mid to know if he can use Wellman together wit hit C n E n zinc,do u tink clomid can correct his high FSH.
not really sure, but hv come across urologists prescribing clomid to males for hormonal issues, let him start exercising, jogging swimming..pressups and pull ups..these increase testerone and help in countering the high fsh. why not try fertilsan m, good reviews about the supplement. also the tiger nut/dates/coconut smoothie...prepare for him round the clock for 1month..u can prep every 3 days 2 to 3liters and freeze/refrigrate.
ttc is quite tiring, but madam all these are minor..at least we can do small small things..than a woman without tubes/bad womb for instance..or a man with zero sperm...na donor things first +ivf again,, double wahala

so sorry for drawing u back on d topic,is it advisable for DH to take Wellman conception along with clomid.he just started taking d supplements.cc cuppymummy
some docs prescribe clomid for some males, for hormonal reasons, especially for anomalies in hormonal levels and s,emen.
am fairly certain he can combine it with any sperm boosting drugs...though its best you confirm from your doc.
from experience a urologist is the best specialist to handle male s,emen issues

Thanks for this info...I will get d details of the procedure from him and bring it on here for approval/advice. I so much appreciate.
yeah 70k for 2 cycles = 35k per cycle...super cheap
the key thing is washing and sorting of the seme.n to remove the dead/immotile semen and debris ..................very very important, without this step, you and your dh..might as well stay and home do your trigger shot , and use the natural tool to inject the seme, ;Dn

Enter a bus to Badagry roundabout, from there u enter a bike (#50) to Great Physician hospital &not d church ooo. PM me for d Doc's number. It's important u schedule an appointment with him b4 going. If u have test results/scan u hv done before, go with dem EXCEPT u don't mind repeating them.

He charged me 70k for IUI for 2 cycles...which is relatively cheap (35k per cycle). But I'm scared, don't know d success rate. With God on your side, u will have a testimony.

Baby dust to us all.
too cheap o, even if its a natural cycle..they must do tracking to know when the eggs are mature and to do the trigger shot.
they likely dont sort,wash and separate the s.perm, they ust collect it in a long syringe and inject, piam!

am thinking the man is bypassing many things...thats why its so cheap...we ignorantly did for 30k 2 or 3 yrs ago-- i didnt know better then, natural cycle..trigger shot was blindly done on cd 13 cos 3 cycles ago dw did tvs and her egg was 18mm, thus the yeye doc assumed that cd 13 is good for trigger shot, all in a bid to save money, and he trigger shot money no folo o..he simply told us to buy and inect on cd 13...or bring it to the hospital and hv the nurses inject dw.

injecting raw semen like that into the uterus with the big syringe is not healthy, cos even naturally..the whole semen isnt pumped into the uterus..its deposited at the mouth of the cervix..and the strong ones then swim up.
all in all, some may still end up getting preg from this wrong procedure grin

@akinola, asking about vit b6. u take it from after ovu till bfp, it helps in thickening and prepping the endometruim for implantation, taking it b4 ovu may likely throw your cycle off.

So I just allowed malaria to deal with me for nothing ehn. Started feeling feverish on Monday and I knew AF was to show so'

DH thought I was beginning to lose it. Lol. AF retaliated with the worst pain ever. I no mind sha because I know it's my last till next year. Mamas wey no dey feel menstrual pain, una no know wetin God don do for una o. I've tried practically everything but it's still the same old story. I've been able to handle every problem I've had except menstrual cramps. I know felvin isn't good but it's the only thing that stops the pain. I know one day, this too will surely pass. It is well.

Happy Sunday all.
lemme throw it out there, incase you havent tried these. most people with serious period pains also hv heavy bleeding
major cause of menstrual pain is endometriosis and sugar.

to stop or reduce period pains, stop sugary food/soft drinks/carbs/cakes etc completely or if u cant 10days before ur period
start a moderate exercise regime 10days b4 period - just walking 1km daily is enough
ruzu bitters, take one or 2 bottles from cd 1 and stop b4 ovu, for best/faster results..u can take truout cycle, if u r ttcing that cycle

garlic&ginger infusion - this might be difficult because of the smell, but u can try dicing the garlic and swallowing with water, while you grate or blend the ginger. you can also do only ginger as its said to work too.

castor oil massage/serrapeptase/ primrose oil - all these dissolve the excess tissue/tone the uterus which is the major cause of endometriosis, may take 2 to 3 months for results to be seen

my dw has tried some of these remedies and it worked for her, just that she is not as disciplined as i am to stick to it religiously, so am sure it would work for you if you r the disciplined type
