pslm23:
I know there is a TTC forum but I was just wondering if there are any ladies here that are going through or will soon go through IVF/IUI or any other assisted reproduction techniques other than clomid.

I am currently doing IVF and thought it would be nice to share with others on the same journey and compare notes on meds, stimms, retrievals, transfers etc.
I'm on day 4 of stimms using 1cc of Menopur 75IU and 375 IU of Gonal-F injections I have to take in my belly every night. These meds have the worst side effects, headaches, nausea and kick-a ss diarrhea (TMI sorry  )

If you have an IVF experience, please share.

I have been wondering if surrogacy is legal in Nigeria. If yes, where can somebody who deperately need their services find them?
What if someone wants a carrier of her own embryos legally through ivf, as they do in India and other developed countries, how can you go about it? Any ideas will be appreciated.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to start this for women who are still waiting for a child, who have tried for a long time, have suffered miscarriages, still births  and  are trying to find alternative ways of having a child.

In our culture it is really difficult to talk about this as people are ashamed or don't know who to trust  and are just generally confused. I have suffered 2 miscarriages and i am still on this journey i believe that i will  be a mother some day.

We believe in Nigeria after 2 years  and no child you have major issues especially from your village but i know that is not always true.

So please come in let us support one another we can pray together, share ideas  seek advice and get advice  and travel this road together dont suffer in silence don't cry alone anymore let us help each other, until the day we carry our bundle of joy.
(My own bundle of joy was born December 2010 nothing is impossible with God)

My wife had a premature delivery, not long ago, at a maternity clinic near our house at Agege and we have been told that the child needs to be on a ventilator to survive. I have been told that this can only be found in a hospital that has a neonatal unit.

This is an Emergency. Where can we find this type of hospitals in Lagos say around the mainland { Ikeja axis } etc

33-year old Kwadwo Mpiani has awaken from a coma just to go back to sleep again after finding out his hospital bill was up to Ghc 300,000 and still counting as he was still connected at the moment he woke up.


Kwadwo Mpiani fell into a coma 10 years ago after having a car accident. Doctors have made everything the can to make him wake up, but nothing had worked, until last week, when they were finally able to bring him back.

“We are very happy that you’re back here”, said the owner of the hospital, with the greatest smile ever, after Kwadwo Mpiani woke up. “You’ve been our most loyal customer. Your bill is almost reaching Ghc 310,000!”, he concluded.


After hearing these words, Kwadwo Mpiani got a heart attack and fell back into a coma. They don’t know when he will wake up again, if he ever does.

Please kindly update on how to cure damaged liver especially using local herbs. Thanks.

https://gisthabit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/hepatitis.jpg

Hepatitis in simple terms is an infection of the liver – it refers to an inflammatory condition of the liver. Hepatitis mostly is caused by an infection, it can also de as a result of medications, drugs, toxins, alcohol. It can also be due to autoimmune activities – a condition where your body makes antibodies against your liver tissue.

5 Types of Hepatitis Infection & Their Treatments

Hepatitis infections are classified as hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. Each class of hepatitis are caused by a different virus.

Treatment options often depend on the type of hepatitis you have and the severity of the infection.

Hepatitis A is always an acute, short-term disease, while hepatitis B, C, and D are most likely to become ongoing and chronic. Hepatitis E is usually acute but can be particularly dangerous in pregnant women.

#1. Hepatitis A

Hepatitis A is caused by an infection with the hepatitis A virus. This type of hepatitis is most commonly transmitted by consuming food or water contaminated by faeces from an infected person.

Treatment

Hepatitis A usually doesn’t require treatment because it’s a short-term illness.
Bed rest may be recommended if symptoms cause a great deal of discomfort.
In case you are experiencing vomiting or diarrhoea, follow your doctor’s orders for hydration and nutrition.
The hepatitis A vaccine is available to prevent this infection. For most children, it is done between ages 12 and 18 months. It’s a series of two vaccines. Vaccination for hepatitis A is also available for adults and can be combined with the hepatitis B vaccine.

#2. Hepatitis B

Hepatitis B is transmitted through contact with an infected person’s body fluids, such as blood, private part secretions, containing the virus. Sexual intercourse, sharing razors or sharp objects with an infected person increases your risk of getting infected with the hepatitis B virus.

Hepatitis B can be prevented with vaccination. The vaccination is recommended for all newborns. The series of three vaccines are typically completed over the first six months of childhood. The vaccine is also recommended for all healthcare, emergency responders and medical personnel.

Treatment

Acute hepatitis B doesn’t require specific treatment.
Chronic hepatitis B is treated with antiviral medications.
Treatment must be continued for several months or years.
Requires regular medical evaluations and monitoring.

#3. Hepatitis C

Hepatitis C comes from the hepatitis C virus. Hepatitis C is also transmitted through direct contact with infected body fluids, typically through sharing of sharp object and sexual contact. It is said that approximately 3.9 million Americans are currently living with a chronic form of this infection. It is one of the most common blood-borne viral infections in the United States.

Treatment

Can be treated by the combination of antiviral medications and therapies.
Further testing to determine the best form of treatment.
Patients may require a liver transplant in acute cases
Currently, there is no vaccination for hepatitis C.

#4. Hepatitis D

Hepatitis D is a serious liver disease caused by the hepatitis D virus. It is contracted through direct contact with infected blood. It is a rare form of hepatitis that only occurs in conjunction with hepatitis B infection.

Treatment

No antiviral medications exist for the treatment of hepatitis D at this time.
Hepatitis D can be prevented by getting the vaccination for hepatitis B, as infection with hepatitis B is necessary for hepatitis D to develop.

#5. Hepatitis E

Hepatitis E is a waterborne disease caused by the hepatitis E virus. It is mainly found in areas with poor sanitation and typically results from ingesting faeces that contaminates the water supply.

Treatment

Currently, no specific medical therapies are available to treat hepatitis E.
Because the infection is often acute, it typically resolves on its own.
People with this type of infection are often advised to get adequate rest, drink plenty of fluids, get enough nutrients, and avoid alcohol.
However, pregnant women who develop this infection require close monitoring and care.
Causes of non-infectious hepatitis

#1. Alcohol and other toxins

Excessive alcohol consumption can cause severe liver damage and inflammation. This is sometimes referred to as alcoholic hepatitis. The alcohol directly injures the cells of your liver. Over time, it can cause permanent damage and lead to liver failure and cirrhosis, thickening and scarring of the liver. Other causes of hepatitis include overuse or overdose of medications and exposure to poisons.

#2. Autoimmune system response

In some cases, the immune system mistakes the liver as a harmful object and begins to attack it. It causes ongoing inflammation that can range from mild to severe, often hindering liver function. This condition is three times more common in women than in men.

Common symptoms of hepatitis

Chronic situations like hepatitis B and C may not show any symptoms in the beginning until the damages affect the liver function.

Signs and symptoms include:

1. fatigue
2. flu-like symptoms
3. dark urine
4. pale stool
5. abdominal pain
6. loss of appetite
7. unexplained weight loss
8. yellow skin and eyes, which may be signs of jaundice

Chronic hepatitis develops slowly, so these signs and symptoms may be too subtle to notice.

Tips to prevent hepatitis

Hygiene

Practising good hygiene is one key way to avoid contracting hepatitis A and E. If you’re travelling to a developing country, you should avoid:

1. local water
2. ice
3. raw or undercooked shellfish and oysters
3. raw fruit and vegetables

Hepatitis B, C, and D contracted through contaminated blood can be prevented by:

1. Not sharing drug needles
2. Not sharing razors
3. Not using someone else’s toothbrush
4. Not touching spilled blood
Hepatitis B and C can also be contracted through sexual intercourse and intimate sexual contact. Practising safe sex by using condoms and dental dams can help decrease the risk of infection. You can find many options available for purchase online.

New survey results indicate that Nigeria has an HIV prevalence of 1.4%
Expanded data collection and analysis provides better understanding of HIV epidemic in Nigeria

ABUJA/GENEVA, 14 March 2019—Results released today by the Government of Nigeria indicate a national HIV prevalence in Nigeria of 1.4% among adults aged 15–49 years. Previous estimates had indicated a national HIV prevalence of 2.8%. UNAIDS and the National Agency for the Control of AIDS estimate that there are 1.9 million people living with HIV in Nigeria.

Speaking in Abuja, Nigeria, the President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, welcomed the news that there are fewer people living with HIV in the country than previously estimated and launched the Revised National HIV and AIDS Strategic Framework 2019–2021, which will guide the country’s future response to the epidemic. Nigeria has made good progress in scaling up HIV treatment and prevention services in recent years.

"For the first time, the end of AIDS as a public health threat by 2030 is truly in sight for our country,” said H.E. Muhammadu Buhari, President of Nigeria. “I urge all of us not to relent but to increase the momentum. Let us work collectively and push for the last mile.”

The data from the Nigeria National HIV/AIDS Indicator and Impact Survey (NAIIS) are based a revised and enhanced methodology. The survey provides a clearer understanding of Nigeria’s HIV epidemic and shines a light on progress and the remaining gaps and challenges.

The Executive Director of UNAIDS, Michel Sidibé, welcomed the new estimates and said the improved understanding of the country’s HIV epidemic would allow Nigeria to better reach people living with HIV and people at higher risk of acquiring HIV.

“I commend the Government of Nigeria and its partners for conducting this ambitious survey, which provides us with a much better understanding of the country’s HIV epidemic,” said Mr Sidibé. “While it is fantastic news that there are fewer people living with HIV in Nigeria than previously thought, we must not let down our guard. Let us use the results of this survey to better focus our delivery of HIV prevention, treatment and care services to the people in the greatest need and ensure that Nigeria gets on track to end the AIDS epidemic by 2030.”

While Nigeria’s national HIV prevalence is 1.4% among adults aged 15–49 years, women aged 15–49 years are more than twice as likely to be living with HIV than men (1.9% versus 0.9%.) The difference in HIV prevalence between women and men is greatest among younger adults, with young women aged 20–24 years more than three times as likely to be living with HIV as young men in the same age group. Among children aged 0–14 years, HIV prevalence according to the new data is 0.2%. Significant efforts have been made in recent years to stop new HIV infections among children.

At the national level, viral suppression among people living with HIV aged 15–49 years stands at 42.3% (45.3% among women and 34.5% among men). When people living with HIV are virally suppressed they remain healthy and transmission of the virus is prevented.

The improved understanding of the country’s HIV epidemic will allow for more efficient investments in the response to HIV and more effective planning for the provision of HIV prevention, care and treatment services, including a focus on key populations, such as female sex workers. It will permit the adoption of a population–location approach to deliver services to the people and areas where they are most needed.

The new data differentiate HIV prevalence by state, indicating an epidemic that is having a greater impact in certain areas of the country. The South-South zone of the country has the highest HIV prevalence, at 3.1% among adults aged 15–49 years. HIV prevalence is also high in the North Central zone (2.0%) and in the South East zone (1.9%). HIV prevalence is lower in the South West zone (1.1%), the North East zone (1.1%) and the North West zone (0.6%).



The National HIV Prevalence is now 1.4%, while each respective states prevalence in % are as follows
1. Ogun-1.6%
2. Lagos-1.4
3. Ondo-1.1
4. Osun-0.9

How Nigeria’s 36 states fare in HIV prevalence

Two South-south states are among the three states with the highest HIV prevalence rate in Nigeria.


Akwa Ibom tops the prevalence rate chart with about 5.5 per cent of its residents living with the virus. It is followed by Benue which has a prevalence rate of 5.3 per cent while Rivers is third with a prevalence rate of 3.8 per cent.

The details were contained in the Nigerian HIV/AIDs Indicator and Impact Survey (NAIIS) whose result was released last week in Abuja.

The result shows that about one per cent of Nigerians (1.9 million people) are currently living with HIV/AIDs.

This figure, according to the Minister of Health, Isaac Adewole, moves Nigeria from second to the fourth position among countries battling the HIV epidemic.


With an earlier estimate of about 3.2 million people living with HIV, Nigeria was second after South Africa which ranks first with about 7.1 million people living with HIV.

Announcing the NAIIS result in Abuja on Thursday, the Director General of the National Agency for the Control of AIDs (NACA), Sani Aliyu, said the percentage of People Living with HIV among adults is 1.4 per cent (1.9 per cent among females and 0.9 per cent among males.)

The National AIDS survey was launched in June 2018 to determine the true distribution of HIV and AIDS, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C in the country.


The survey reached around 220,000 people in about 100,000 households and was conducted between July and December 2018.

According to the survey, the South-south zone of the country has the highest HIV prevalence, at 3.1 per cent among adults.

HIV prevalence is also high in the North-central zone with 2.1 per cent and in the South-east zone, 1.9 per cent.

The three regions with lower prevalence rate are the South-west – 1.2 per cent, North-east – 1.1 per cent, and the North-west zone – 0.6 per cent.

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks cells in the immune system, which serves as the body’s natural defence against illnesses.

Though the popular way of contracting this virus is through vaginal or anal sex, there are other ways. These include sharing of needles or syringes, piercings, tattoos, blood transfusions, semen (cum), or vaginal fluids into open cuts or sores on the body. HIV currently has no cure but can be prevented and managed with proper medication.

Below is the full list of states and their HIV prevalence rate.

Health Checks. Doctor in the House

For all you Nairalanders I have decided to be your official doctor in the house. I have found this site so helpful in bonding me to my motherland I have decided to give medical advice with the usual disclaimer. This is just advice. Further treatment should be sought from your personal physician!

BrandSpurNG:
Statistics has shown that millions of people die every year as a result of medical carelessness. The hard truth is that many people are more concerned about wealth than health, forgetting the fact that enjoying wealth is absolutely impossible in the grave.

Numerous death occurrences are traceable to inadequate medical checkups, thus the necessity of sensitizing the public regarding the grave consequences of neglecting medical checkups.

It’s saddening that a lot of us hate death but ignorantly sign our death warrant as a result of negligence to vital medical responsibilities. Embarking on regular medical checkups is one of the responsibilities many of us find it difficult to indulge, which is awful.

The need for medical checkups is undoubtedly underestimated by a large number of people, count yourself very lucky for stumbling on this page.
Below are some of the major reasons why regular medical checkup is very necessary.

1. Regular Medical Checkup Saves Life.

There are several deadly diseases which are capable of eliminating one’s life if not ascertained at the early stage. Diseases such as diarrhea, lower respiratory infections, Trachea, bronchus, lung cancers amongst other ailments kills very fast if left untreated. Hence the reason why regular medical checkup is highly essential for healthy living.

A regular medical checkup is as important as eating regularly if you desire to live long and stay healthy.

In as much as lack of medical checkups has caused the death of a very high disturbing number of people, It is also factual to note that regular medical checkup has saved a lot of persons from the calamitous venom of death.

2. Prevention Is Better Than Cure.

The phrase above is a very popular saying and its validity is yet to be disputed. A regular medical checkup is a preventive measure that has no substitute.
Regular medical checkup brings about early detection of any disease which may cause potential damages if not ascertained and treated.

Cancer.org has affirmed that it’s extremely crucial to detect cancer and other diseases at the early stage because early detection increases the survival rate.

There are some diseases that are insidious and unnoticeable, the progression of such diseases cannot be tracked unless the victim goes through medical checkups to ensure the threats orchestrated by the disease are curbed.

3. Regular Medical Checkup Keeps You Updated.

Failure to know about your health status is a disease itself, which is categorized under the malady of ignorance. The result of your screenings will tell your doctor all they need to know about your health. This will also keep you abreast regarding your health condition.

Getting to know about your unfavourable health status shouldn’t make you feel worried, you should rather be happy about discovering it early enough.

If you’re aware of your health status, you’ll definitely adopt some preventative measures that would help you to curb the disease. A diabetes patient who is fully aware of his/her condition would know the kind of foods to consume.

4. Regular Medical Checkup Reduces The Cost Of Healthcare.

Early detection of any disease helps to restrain the risks of undergoing surgery and other complicated medical operations which erupts as a result of the escalation of minor diseases.
With the aid of medical checkups, you can always find out if you have high or low blood sugar in your body or hepatitis B, high or low blood pressure.

If minor diseases are left undetected and untreated as the case may be, the cost of treating them later would definitely be high, which may likely not be affordable.

To avert the danger of unwarranted medical expenditures, it’s highly advisable to embark on regular medical checkups. Always go for medical screenings.

5. Blood Tests

During the medical checkup, the laboratory scientist would definitely carry out a series of blood tests. These are done to ensure that all the diseases hidden within your circulatory system are exposed.

Diabetes, cholesterol, cancer, high blood pressure, anaemia, HIV/AIDS, as well as coronary artery diseases can all be diagnosed through a blood test. Always be mindful of blood tests when going for a medical checkup
There are many reasons why you regularly need to embark on medical checkups but I’m very sure the points above would sensitize the public including you.

Conclusively, the essence of going for medical checkups can never be overemphasized but it’s also very important to meet a professional laboratory scientist. Don’t fall into the hands of half baked lab scientists because of the urge of getting a cheaper service.

Your health should always be your priority. Your longevity is not tied to any religious belief, you should take your life more serious.
