MamaHeaven:
Hello Mamas,

Pls which clinic is better for HSG? Mecure or Clinix healthcare?

I was about to start on Serrapeptase but hubby feels i should get a second HSG to confirm before starting any drugs so i called both diagnostic centers but not sure which to use? Are they painful at these places?

Abeg make una no look me pass. Your opinion will be appreciated.

Thanks
serrapeptase isnt a drug....it eats away dead tissue, has no dosage..taking it b4 hsg is actually good, as it will soften any blockage if any...so the pressure from the hsg can actually push it open if blocked.
cant say much about both clinics...just that mecure seems organized and efficient

@daboomb,

thnks for the thorough analysis.

1. any idea how many headpans are in 1 trip of sand?...learnt 1 trip is 10tonnes, am guess 1 headpan should be 30kghuh?

2. in another writeup i saw, someone said 1 bag of cmt will set 80 to 100 blocks, but will mould 35 to 50 blocks , pls clarify

3. for simplicity, i would stick to using blocks for the spine, and not iron rods and concrete, thus thinking of using the width of 2 or 3 blocks as spine

4. in the writeup some1 used 0.85, wondering why thought it should be 0.66, since 1 block is 18inchies = 1.5ft, the calc below was done for 60ft x 120ft land

.
Find out how many 6 or 9 inches blocks fit into a sq ft by the net wall area. Both are about the same lenght, but just differ in thickness, and a sq ft will take 0.85 block. Meaning that a sq ft will take about a whole block. Now, multiply 0.85 x 3600, that gives us = 3,060 pieces of blocks
.

hello gents,
am a newbie here. tried searching , no show

want to fence 100ft x 100ft land, dwarf fence, say about 5ft, am assuming 2coaches in the ground and 3 or 4 coaches on the surface.
would appreciate a rough estimate and breakdown of the cost, or even better someone who has fenced recently could gimme his total cost, i may be able to extrapolate.

2ndly, i intend to use 3 locks to form the spine of the fence, placed every 10ft apart, btw using block as spine and using iron rod and concrete, which is better or preffered?

Hello everyone, I am new there. I am a man, I hope men are welcome here too? Pls my DW have been ttcing. But recently both of us went to d hospital to seek solution, but after all d test we both had my DW result all shows that she is OK. But in my own case d semen analysis test I did showed that I have low sperm count less than 1million. The Dr. placed me on Addyzoa. Pls I need success testimonies from does that there DH have used Addyzoa b4. I am ask to take 2 tablet Bd for 90days. Lastly, My DW use to hav her cycle for 3days but had infection, but d infection have been treated and gone, but her cycle drop to 2 days with light flow. D flow is not heavy at all. But Dr said that can't stop her from being BFP. Anyone with similar case? Share experience with us Pls. With d 2 days light flow cycle that she have is it possible she still ovulate? Thnx
welcome, am male too.addyzoa works for some people and not for others..its till after 3months that you would know which group you fall into.
would suggest you consume more of tigernuts-aki awusa, watermelon with the seed, almonds, antioxidants, fertilsan m tabs etc.

@house
Pls, I am looking to re-ignite this conversation on timers and contractors.

If I put my fridge for example on a timer plug, in order to maximize my consumption during peak sunshine hours ; how can I ensure that if NEPA brings light, that it can feed the fridge despite my timer plug haven switched off supply?

I'm sure there should be a way around it.

Pls help.
i have the same challenge, i dont think there is any way around it, apart from manually replugging the fridge to phcn, as there is no way for the plug to differentiate btw phcn and inverter voltage.
only consolation is that the inverter would get some charge from the phcn if they bring light

thick linning usually signifies endo.
castor oil massage, serrapeptase, primrose oil, progesta cream are said to help combat it.
yes a thick linning will reduce the chances of ssuccesful implantation, be it ivf or natural

So, few days ago, I upgraded my setup from the old 24 volts , 4 solar panel setup.

Now i have a car port with 12 nos 250 W Solar Panels (mixture of felicity and my-home with almost similar configuration). The car port can accommodate 15 panels Maximum (by just tweaking the holes in pipes), 80A Fangpusun Mppt Charge Controller, Mate 2, 48V Battery (4 Quanta batteries connected in series), and 5kva - 48V Felicity Inverter.

The only item missing is the Monitoring System which i need to complete but I can access the readings up to 128 days on the Charge controller. Need to brace the car port too. Interestingly, the highest generation so far recorded 8.4kWH in a cloudy day and I've been off grid for like 3 weeks(24/7) because the transformer in my area packed up.

I think its a good way to start for a beginner like me, right?
your harvest is too poor, 8.4kw, ur panels are 3kw already..using the 5hr sunshine rate and factoring in losses and inefficiencies..your harvest shud be above 12kw daily, i harvest about 6.2kw daily from my 1500w panel array 4 x 200ah battery bank. another reason might be that your load is small and your bank small too, methinks an 8 battery system is beta suited to your 3000kw panel array

My dear, raincolour took the words out of my mouth. Concentrate on your ovulation days. And do it as much as everyday during this time if you can. Na those days be the koko but kpekus on other days because we never can tell. Anugod feels she conceived like 5days to her period. It happens. God help us. It shall come to pass.
so checked my tracking app, the cycle dw conceived, we werent together till cd 12, her cycle is 29/30 days...with ovu usually cd 15/16
cd 12 -- watery cm/egg white
cd 13 ----- watery cm/egg white BD
CD 14 ------ BD
CD 15 ----- OVU PAIN , BD
CD 17 ----- BD AM&PM grin
CD 22 ------- BD
CD 24 --------MILD CRAMPS ON&OFF
CD 25 ------- BD
CD 28-------- BD
CD 31 -------- BD
CD 33---------BD
CD 37 ------- CRAMPS AGAIN
CD 38-------- CRAMPS SPOTTING
CD 39--------- ist test strip BFP, YAY THANK YOU JESUS....too bad miscarried after some weeks.

@all, if you can track, it helps to understand ur body, i only took note of the symptoms she told me, i blv still missed some she didnt tell me. i blv ovu happened on cd 15, and implantation on cd 24, cos of too many bfns she didnt want to test until cd 39 when she summoned courage

@fpeter, i would not want to elaborate on that in a female dominated thread, its quite a sensitive subject - most things i say is from my personal experience, or what i read/heard someone say, this one is personal grin grin
, 2ndly i listed many possible causes, so it may not be that 1

@loisemom, yeah we were so elated when the bfp happened, twas like a dream.
i introduced a myriad of changes, so not sure of the one that may hv changed the goal to enter, also the God factor is there as i sowed a seed in the children ministry in my local church, sent out prayer request to a church and the physical side. have been on fertilsan m for abt 9months now [even though my last swimmer results are decent] +wifey became serious abt her supplements..will give a comprehensive list later on

It is very frustrating. Pls pls any advice, recommendations would be appreciated. I don't need any hurtful mockery pls.

thats a tough one...the reverse of what most men suffer from.
its usually caused by excessive masturbation prior or present, s,ex enhancing drugs,excessive porn, not tight enuff jaijaina issues etc and a small fraction of men may be genetically wired like that.unless you know the cause, treating it would be hard...he alone knows what he has been upto in the past, if he sees this post he can work out his solution.
he could try a radical /dangerous approach of taking sugary stuff/soft drinks for 2 to 4wks...and see if there is any change, cos that is the root cause of premature ejaculation in most males

Pls sis, where is the lab u used? I want to do another HSG before considering flushing and the labs I contacted is a bit expensive.
not sure if this is correct,
flushing is advanced hsg, thus planning to do another hsg b4 going for flushing doesnt make much sense.
the flushing will push out whatever that is blocking the tubes, ie if na light blockage, hsg no get power to push anything. unless its cos of cost, but even at that i suggest u go for flushing straight up.
if you hv or are suspecting tubal blockage issues, its best to take serrap for some time b4 going for the flushing

Gud evening mamas. Pls o, I need your help. I finally got serrapeptase 120000spu (Dr's Best, 270caps) and I was so happy because I stopped d last bottle November 2016, was taking 2caps morning and evening. I started the new bottle on saturday morning and after about 2hrs, I started feeling nauseous o, and vomiting started. That's how I vomited most of the day, was so weak and couldn't eat anything. It was a scary experience. Has it happened to anybody? What will I do so I won't vomit d serra again because I need that serrapeptase so much.

yeah, it happens sometime..either with food or empty stomach..cant rememeber, and different body types too,,,, came across than info when researching.
its adviced to start small, and increase after a couple of days if ur body accepts it...so start with 1 tab / day..n gradually work it up to 3 tabs daily in 1wks time

Hello noble ppl of this thread.
Pls I'll need a medical practitioner here to help me translate this result of SFA.
I have tried reading online and watching YouTube videos, but none I've found tells me specifics, here's the result:
Colour: greyish
Volume: 3.6million/ml
Count: 72.4 million cells/ml
Morphology: 65% normal forms, 35% abnormal forms
Motility: 25% active, 55% sluggish, 20% non-motile
Keep up the good work/spirit of support and togetherness
ur result appears fair, am guessing the 3.6m for vol is a typo from ur end or the lab, sfa volume is usually from 1ml to 5ml, ie 1/2 teaspoon to 2 table spoons, so the 3.6m doesnt make sense. ur morph is ok, its motility that needs working on.
you can start taking fertile aid motility boost alone for that, in the short term..coffe/cafeine works to give the spermies a lil extra energy...so taking 1 cup of coffee 1hr b4 kpekus would help.
also try and take anti oxidants/larginine......forever living has a product rich in anti oxidants its called argi, its in a powdery form, try that or any other antioxidant u know.

basically, you shudnt be worried abt ur spermies,,, the nos u hv is enuff to give woman belle. what of ur dw..has she been checked, how many yrs ttc etc

I get question oo
1. Do i need to do hormonal test and HSG since i was once pregnant last year?
My gynea is not doing test for me, i guess since it is hospital i av bn using even wen i was pregnant, decided not to use him again since he will write big money and give me just ovulation inducing drugs, his assistant told me i need nothing less dan 15 follicles to achieve prenancy(na true? )
No read pass me pls
hmm 15 follicles?. ojigbi-jigbi-ji
e be like say na yabatech that doc assistant go.
a woman needs just 1 mature follicle to carry belle. she might produce 10 to 25follies, but only 1,2, or 3 would grown to maturity and be fertilization worthy.

would advice you look for another doc/hospital, that asst is half baked

@curvilicious, i feel ur pains, seems ur dh is very very hot tempered, to slap u in ur moms presence not once but twice, only a very hot tempered and angry man would that.
