@Redeemed..I am doing fine by his grace.Thanks for ALWAYS remembering me.I have decided to let God have his way.I deeply appreciate your concern.You are too much.God bless.


Congrats to Waistbead and Oriente1...You will both carry to term in Jesus name.

Lastly,sure you can sleep with your wife.You never can tell,she may conceive before you finish taking the drugs. Wish everyone here a successful journey. Thanks to those keeping the forum going.

Donatee,I think the hospital you are talking about is St Ives somewhere in Ikoyi.

Yolemum,I will not advice you mix the Dr Quick treatment with Fertisan m.It is not friendly when it has to do with fertility.It is more like you mixing herbs with orthodox medicine.Make sure you finish the Dr Quick and go for check up to ascertain if there is any improvement before you even order for Fertisan M.

@Church12, your motility and morphology are perfect except your sperm count that need to be boosted.Thank God you are infection free.I will suggest you see an urologist for drug description or you can try some of the fertility drugs like Addyzoa,Fertisan m,Manix, and also eat healthy by eating fertility friendly foods.
You are good to go if you can do all this and if your wife is in good shape of health.Better still,take your time to read through the previous messages here.
Wish you the best.

Mannycrown...To God be the glory.
Jones2014.. amen to your prayers.

Loisemm...No qualms..God bless you.

Loisemm...It appears you are new in the forum.I expected you to go through my profile and my previous post before you conclude on your critical judgements. Not to worry,I am not angry and your post will not cause any controversy.Just that i feel the way to go about suspicious post/monikers in this forum is to read through the suspects previous post to ascertain if that moniker is really genuine or not.I decided to limit my post here for reasons best known to me.
Honestly,i hardly check my nairaland mail to know if i have a notification because i configured my main email to my phone.It was when Fvine alerted me that she sent me a PM that i have to access the mail and found out that i have some other notifications.I even went as far as giving them my main email for easy communication and subsequent mail exchange.My last 2 comments should have shown you that i am not one of those scammers you think i am.I can as well ignore your comment and not reply you but i want it to be a notice to others not to unjustly accuse someone.No right thinking man or woman will be happy to be without his own biological child for over 5years.TTC is enough headache now!!!!! Please,let's be very cautious..I have been commending you deep within me for the compilation of WIDD.Your CIA move will not change my mind.Lol.Be encouraged and everyone grab your BFP
One love keep us together.
Sorry for the long post.I just want to be like Fvine small.Lol.

Pweetymii,I am more of a peaceful person and will want the forum to be peaceful as well.You know,some of us are emotionally down and won't want anybody to come play on our intelligence.That is another reason why we shouldn't blame others that doubted her post.Also,we need people to calm the nerves of both disagreeing parties.
Sincerely,i have been enjoying the serene and condusive atmosphere of the house.Couple with the positive news that has been flying all around the house.
Moreover,the rate at which the sperm count issue is increasing is damn too alarming.We just need a lasting solution that will reduce infertility generally(Male and Female) and possibly make people spend less.

Good evening all Mama's and Papa's..I want to plead as other Mama's have suggested that we give Rachie83 the benefit of doubt.I will do same out of excitement if i am in her shoes.I will joyfully spread the good news to anyone that is ready to hear.
If she is a marketer as some of you claim,it will reveal itself one way or the other.Though,i doubt this claim.

Congrats to all the belleful Mama's and kudo's to all the prayer warriors.

Redeemed,thanks for the mention.I am always here daily.I am addicted to the forum like some people are addicted to Facebook and Twitter.

Let the showers of BFP continue in Jesus name.

Miracletwinee......

"All that said please let's move on and continue to encourage ourselves i believe that this is a place where we can draw strength away from the struggles and pains of this monster called infertility.please don't give up you are in a battle that must be won because Gods word concerning us is NON SHALL BE BARREN So no matter how good we think or hear a dr is please don't throw away that element of God in any treatment. May God grant us all our heart desire."

...I quote part of your comment because it shows how matured you are.That is the way to go about issues of this nature.Mothers and Fathers,forge ahead and keep on with the good work and for the forum to be condusive as usual.The love of God will continue to rule here.One love.

Thanks for the prompt response@ Fvine,Donatee,Iomoge and Omonikiba.We will do as you women suggested.
We do bd mostly through the rear.The sperm issue is another issue on its own.

Fvine,I am an old member here and have been battling with sperm count wahala.I have not been posting as usual that is why you dont see more of me.

Omonikiba,so happy to read from you.How are you and the family?

God bless everyone in this forum.

Happy sunday Mamas..Congrats to all the belleful Mama's,the ATC Mama's and the fruitful fathers.

@Giftedbabies,I pray God touches the heart of your DH.I understand how you feel and what youare going through at the moment.Everybody differs in their ways of handling issues even TTC issues.In my case,i dont see myself feeling unconcerned because i am seriously in need of carrying my own biological children.
I will advice you not to relent in your prayers.God will surprise you by making him have a change of mind and start taking his drugs.

Good day all...Here is the message from Iyomomo..I really do not know how she will take it but i feel the solution/hope it will bring to the hopeless matters a lot.

Hello,sorry to hear about your case but nothing is beyond God.
2yrs ago My hubby was given follistim and gonal -f. ie fsh and Hcg 4 abt 6wks .
D doctor is at Ponders end Clinic, Victory lane off New Lagos Road close to new benin market. Dr *****.He's very good but the good/bad with him is that he wants to help you save money, which sometimes is detrimental.Through internet research we found out He didn't complete the dose for my Dh hence it was low sperm count (though I got pregnant with it,but Miscarried. I read online that it can be continued for up to six months but he discourage us saying treatment would be too expensive in hundreds of thousands (6 weeks was close to 100k)and instead was placed on addyzoa and enhanz for 4/5mths but we discovered the low count didn't shift at all, though his hormones are balanced now. From SFA and hormonal profile 3mnths ago,we asked to start the fsh and hcg protocol again,but he refused and advised IVF.So we decided to self prescribe,bought the injections and I was even the one giving it to him because we didn't have prescription to go to any nurse.We bought 15 vials of fsh (follitropin 75iu) @4500 each … then 3 vials of hcg (IVF -C @.2500 each.
Fsh 3x a week
Hcg 1x in 2weeks.
I will advice you do your own proper research online.HCG is said to reverse testicular shrinkage.Even after my husband took the 1st doses 2yrs back, the size of his testicles increased .
I wish you all d best! Hope this helps and eventually put laughter in someone's family.

Jones2014...I am very available..Just hoping on God..Some TTcer's can read through the forum Alternative method to TTC for Iyomomo's testimony on how she and her husband were able to conquer Low Sperm Count..I will try to post it when i am chanced.

[B)cathyibok
It's well o. Nobody seem to v an answer to my question I posted twice on the thread. To think that some mamas triggered. Seems questions are only answered if u r being mentioned as a sabi mama in a post. God dey.(B]
Your question will attended to.Please,be patient..

Congrats to Redeemed and DH..Happy birthday and Wedding Anniversary.

Mumihaja,the comedian of the house.Safe06 has gone AWOL.

Beetle,Congrats on the arrival of your bouncing baby girl.She will fulfill destiny and grow in wisdom and stature..Happy wedding anniversary to you and hubby.

Ambient..Our sabi mama's will attend to your question.Just be patient with them.They are celebrating with our sister Beetle who just experience the hand of God in her marriage.

@All,be expecting more good news.The spirit of God is moving.The power of God is here and he is here to wipe out every tears in our eyes.

Congrats@Beetle....God of speedy intervention is all around this thread..Everybody should be at alert to grab their own BFP.He is countering every negative verdict,opening people's case file and attending to it.I hope Beetle's testimony will be enough to bring out the old Mama's that has been MIA.Mamatriplet,Safe06,Chi16,Omonikiba,Tamilore, and those i didn't list their names...Come and see what God Almighty has done.No medical issue/report is too hard to God to reverse.

Bcolah,First of all..Congrats in advance.Your message is of great benefit.It is a good thing you didn't have to wait till you got your BFP before sharing this positive news.
I have been eagerly waiting for a time like when someone with such challenge will share the good news of how they were able to achieve a positive result.This message will open doors to others going through the same challenge even though people believe that what works for one person may not work another because of the cause of the ailment.Lord,that breaks all protocol,come to our rescue and let your glory continue to shine upon us your children.
I am just too happy for Bcolah.This news among others has made my day.

Congrats to all the Mama's that have gotten their BFPs and Congrats to the about to be pregnant Mummies too..You will all carry to term and deliver with ease in Jesus name.This month is a remarkable month and must end with more BFPs.

Please...Trendy4real,Legendsmother and Mumihaja.You all should let peace reign.Abi,could this be sign of pregnancy?

Well,what i observe in this whole saga is mere misunderstanding.I dont think Mumihaja mean't it that way.We all know how she brings out the humorous side of every situation and if it truly happens that anybody is guilty of such act,it is very bad and they should repent from it..I know so many old Mamas have been MIA for reasons best known to them.TTC is not a childs play.Our strength to accomodate situation differs even as our thoughts differs.
Let us allow the celebration mood to overrule every other issue.Let the love of God rule in our various mind.

Mannycrown......A big congratulations to you and Wifey.What the lord has done in your marriage and health shall be permanent.Your wife will carry to term and deliver like the hebrew women.You will never experience delay in your marriage and life again in Jesus name.

Sure i can but let's confirm from Miraclebaby where/how she got her own or you can send a PM to me.

Hmmmm.

I went for a test and i found out that I have heavy growth of isolate Candida and I did not use to see my period for over six months but later I will see it and after that, I wil not see it again. Does that means that I will not be pregnant.
Answer:
Before you get pregnant you need to treat Candida, by following a Candida detox, because you can pass this organism to your baby during birth and cause baby to have thrush.
Candida infections also cause you to have hostile cervical mucus which may be an obstacle to conception.
Having irregular periods is probably unrelated to Candida, this is something that needs to be investigated further by your doctor through testing.
Many natural remedies can help regulate the menstrual cycle, which contains vitex. You can learn more about Vitex and its benefits here.
Fertility Blessings!
Question:
I went to doctor and found out i have moderate growth of staph areus and mixed isolated candidas. Can that affect my fertility?
Answer:
Candida can affect you cervical mucus and cause an environment hostile to sperm, thus reducing your ability to get pregnant. Having high candida count during pregnancy can increase your risck if yeast infection during pregnancy, which is hard to treat. Staph infections may require antibiotics, which should not be taken if you get pregnant. It would be better to clear any type of infection before trying to conceive.
Many blessings!
Question:
I went for HVS test and the culture result reads moderate growth of candida albicans and the Dr prescribs Diflucan to be taken 3 tablets at once. whats your advice on the treating as am so eager to conceive. Thanks.
Answer:
Follow your doctor's advise, but consider waiting until the next month to conceive. Also, make sure to use a condom while making love until you are completely candida free because you can contaminate your partner and he can contaminate you back.
After you have completed your doctors treatment consider a more natural approach that will prevent you from having yeast again especially if you want to get pregnant. I would recommend the Candida Detox. This herbal product is excellent to helping your body rid itself of Candida, but you should not conceive while on this product as it contains herbs like Pau D' arco and Black Walnut that are contraindicated during pregnancy as they can be toxic.
Candida can be hard to eliminate, especially if you have a lowered immune system response due to stress or allergies.
I would recommend taking borax 30 CH with Candida 30CH for at least 10 days after diflucan. These homeopathic remedies help support your immune system to fight the candida infection and help you prevent candida naturally. They can be repeated once a month if necessary, until you are completely candida free.
Homeopathic remedies are non- toxic and can be taken during conception and pregnancy.
Also Yeast Arrest Suppositories are safe to take if you are trying to conceive or if you get pregnant.
Many Blessings!

Good morning all...Want to share this with you all.It could be of help to someone..

Fertility and Candida

I am 32 years old and I have 4 year old son. I have been suffering from secondary infertility. Over the past 4 years of trying to get pregnant...I found out I have a mild case of hypothyroidism-hasimoto's disease (which is an autoimmune disorder), I've developed eczema (which I never had before), I started having short luteal phases with low progesterone, I had laparscopic surgery for a mild case of endometriosis. And finally a month after my laparscopic surgery I got pregnant, but unfortunately I miscarried at 10 weeks.
And, since the miscarriage I've been trying to figure out what's going on with my body & I think I finally figured it out----Candida.
I believe that after I had my son my immune system was weak (I breastfed him for almost a year) and at that time I wasn't taking the best care of myself (not taking vitamins, etc). I think that this is when the Candida started.
Within the past 2 years I have been taking vitamins, exercising regularly, eating good & I started using progesterone cream after ovulation until my period came---but I have recently found out that progesterone cream is horrible for Candida because Candida feeds on progesterone.
My question is once I get rid of the Candida, will my fertility be restored? And is it safe to get pregnant after Candida? What supplements are good for me to take to balance my hormones?
Answer:
Yes, once you eliminate or better prevent Candida overgrow, you will increased your chances of getting pregnant. Candida can affect fertility by making your cervical mucus thick and hostile to sperm. Women who have Candida overgrow may have difficulty detecting egg white fertile cervical mucus, especially if they experience recurrent yeast infection. It is very much associated with low immunity, stress, diet and most importantly hormones. Hormonal changes during pregnancy and after childbirth can definitely cause Candida overgrow.
Also, if you don't treat Candidates before pregnancy, you will be at risk for having yeast recurrent infections during pregnancy, which are harder to treat and you can also pass it to your baby during childbirth.
The first action to take is to change your diet because you can literally starve Candida so that it will stop growing.
The best way to deal with Candida is to do a Candida detox. in association with these dietary changes. Both partners have to do this as there is the possibility of cross-contamination.
Avoid the following foods for 6 weeks and then limit their intake and frequency (one or twice a week only). Some people are sensitive and have a predisposition to Candida and may have to follow this diet two or three times a year, especially during the change of season fall and spring, when Candida has a tendency to thrive in moist warm weather.
A. MAKE SURE TO AVOID
1. Dairy products except for organic plain yogurt with good bacteria.
2. Sugar, honey, cakes and candies, sweeteners, sodas, and ice cream. Substitute with xylitol sugar or stevia.
3. Fruit juices. Only drink freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices.
4. Dried fruits.
5. Refined carbohydrates (white rice, white bread, white pasta).
6. Avoid alcohol, fermented foods and cheese.
7. Do not drink tap water, it contain many chemicals that contribute to lower your immune system. Chlorine and fluoride in water are especially detrimental to fertility. Fluoride affects the thyroid gland.
B. MAKE SURE TO EAT
1. Lots of fresh vegetables.
2. Fresh fruits twice a day only.
3. Whole grains like kamut , quinoa, millet, spelt.
4. Supplement with good probiotic.
5. take garlic capsules or eat lots of garlic, broccoli and immune boosting herbs oregano.
6. Only eat meat that have been raised organically without hormones and antibiotics.
7. Eat legumes like lentils and garbanzo beans once or twice a week.
8. Eat fresh wild caught fish like tilapia, salmon, sardines, and sole once or twice a week.
9. Drink lots of water that has been filtered.
10. If you have yeast infections apply yeast arrest suppositories.
BUT, there is more...
Candida also affects the lining of your uterus and could be linked to endometriosis. Candida overgrowth can in severe cases cause leaky gut syndrome, which leads Candida and other toxins to spread affecting the hormonal system. In most cases, the symptoms of hormonal imbalance like estrogen dominance are very similar to those of Candida infection. The theory out there is that once Candida spreads into the blood system it can interact with hormones and change their ability to function properly.
Also, Candida produces toxins that mimic estrogen, which further affects hormonal problems. In fact high estrogen levels are associated with increase vaginal yeast and Candida infection. It also seems like synthetic estrogens from hormone replacement therapy and birth control pill may feed Candida. And as you mentioned, even natural progesterone may increase Candida to spread.
This whole condition believed it or not has a very fancy name:
Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy Immune-dysregulation Candidiasis Hypersensitivity syndrome (APICH).
Women with Candida overgrow are often found to have an immune dysfunction causing an increase in the production of prostaglandin E2, which cause stimulation of the endometrium and uterine contractions associated with endometriosis. So, Candida makes endometriosis worse.
Also, endometriosis is associated with poor immunity and hormonal imbalance like stimulation from estrogen, which also stimulate endometriosis growth and spreading.
In order to help decrease endometriosis before conception is definitely important to eliminate Candida and to support the endocrine system and immune system. Herbal remedies can help in this process.
I would recommend Women's Best Friend Herbal Remedy. This is a really amazing supplement that use females herbs to strengthen the immune system and support hormonal balance. To get best results in treating endometriosis, I would also recommend doing self fertility massage.
I hope this answers your question. If you have more questions, do not hesitate to ask.
Fertility Blessings!

BlessedDiva,Accept my condolence..May your mum's soul rest in perfect peace and may God give you and siblings the strength to bear the loss....

Good morning fruitful mothers and fathers..I strongly believe that we will count more than 5 BFP's this month of April,by the grace of God.

I took my time to browse extensively through google to know how Candidiasis can affect male fertility..What i discovered was really shocking..I cant start posting them here because it will get me barred.I implore you all to go check it yourself..There are so many women asking similar questions on candidiasis too and the doctor gives them a soothing and encouraging response/answers.
I had to go ask google because my wife have been battling with Candidiasis and Moderate staph even before we got married.
Natural remedy helps a lot...God bless you all.

Thank God i have been unbarred...
