Dear Doctor,
I need your assistance. I m married for 2yrs but have a fertility issue. Initial test revealed I had zero count. Subsequently, I have done series of tests including scrotal uss(normal), spermatozoa fructose (positive) and hormonal assay with the ff results;FSH 46.5miulml, LH 27.0miulml, Prolactin 16.0nglml, Testosterone 1.6nglml. The doctor said there is hormone inbalance and that i need to do a testicular biopsy. What do you think. Personally, I feel there should be medications to correct the situation.
Thank you

Your high FSH & LH levels and the zero count suggests that your testes are not responding to anything, so a biopsy might be the best way to see exactly what is going on in there. Do you already have kids?

I don't know of any medications that can correct this.

Good luck.

Hello Dr.

please, i need your help.

since january, i have been having this severe dizziness,everyday ,always accompained by stomach discomfort and weakness in my arms and legs and fatigue.i always have this throbbing and creeping sensation inside my hands and legs which can be felt say by touch or seen on the skin.anytime this dizziness goes away for say some few hours, i'll experence body pain till it comes back.

the doctor told me my BP was high then in janauary ( 150/100) and that it could be the cause of the dizziness and weaknss.was given some drugs too. i have a digital BP machine which i use to monitor it(don't know how accurate this machine is though), and recently, my BP has been between 132-142/87-97.

plz wat could be wrong.this condition's making my life miserabe

My opinion is that all your symptoms make it very difficult to be able to make a diagnosis. However, it is good to keep your blood pressure within normal limits, so continue taking your BP meds.

I would also suggest that you read up on "somatization disorder" (you can search on google) and see if it applies to you. If you have an insight to what might be wrong with you, you may help your doctor to understand more about your "mixed symptoms"

You can conduct a research for yourself. Check with dental hospitals in your area and compare their fees. I'm sure that will help with making the best choice.

Doc, am a young man of 21years,my problem is that i still don't have any beards on my jaw,i have hairs on other parts of my body but non on my jaw region!!what do i do?is there any cream or drug i can use to make it grow?waiting in anticipation of your response

From your above statement, i believe you have other signs of male sexual maturity, so there seems to be nothing for you to worry about.

There are drugs that can promote hair growth, but you must be aware of their side effects and efficacy, so that you will not be disappointed.

The highly dependable doctor, I'll need your assistance urgently. Fourteen yrs of battling with malaria parasite no remedy, I've taken all kinds of malaria drugs but no relieve; body weakness and pains is my daily living, anytime I went to the hospital, MP is always diagnose, treatment will be done is just like drinking water. Can you give me the final solution to my problem. Thanks in anticipation.

We live in a malaria endemic zone, so it will not be surprising for you to have frequent bouts of malaria.

From the information you gave, it sounds like the drugs cure your infection and then, at a later time, you get reinfected.

You need to find ways of avoiding the vectors that transmit the malaria infection - mosquitos.

So, always spray your house with insecticides, keep your doors closed at night.
Wear long sleeve shirts and long pants and socks when you leave your house at night,
use mosquito nets on your windows and around your bed,
Discard stagnant water around your house where mosquitos can breed,
Eat healthy, exercise and avoid stress to increase improve your immunity.

I have contaminated by a disease from Cats. Firstly i feel vomiting, slow motion and loss of appetite. Then its turn into loss of appetite, blackish stole and feeling something anchoring inside throat and also light cough. Then its turn into pain around kidney, light cough, blackish stole, loss of appetite, loss weight, blackish spot on the skin, skin disease etc. Is there any treatment of this disease? Kindly advise me,

Your symptoms do not tie up to any disease i know.

However, if you are convinced that you got infected from our cat, you need to get to a hospital to see a doctor who will ask about your symptoms, do a physical examination on you and possibly some laboratory tests.

With time, the highest Guardsmen who attain the ranks of Captain and Major would be redeployed to replace all the Miliatary Captains and Majors.

With time there would be no Military Captains and Majors in the Guard's Service. The Captains and Majors would be Guards men who went up through the ranks from Private. The only miliatary man that will not be changed is in the the Colonel - in - Chief who will always be a miliatary Officer.

The only thing i don't quite agree with is integration into the Nigerian army. This will turn things political, and the same problems of the Nigerian army will be introduced to the system.

I think the national guards should run parallel to the Army, and their functions should be well defined, so we don't have overlaps.

Seun:
Getting our graduates into more situations where they are likely to be killed is just a silly idea.
Human life is more valuable than employment.  Also, 36,500 is not a very big number.

First, it has to be voluntary service.

Also, if it is to be done properly, the national guards will be a very well trained and functional unit that everybody should be made to respect.

If you become good at what you do, you will enter situations that other people will fear to even smell.

They will be respectable citizens, and their level of discipline should be exemplary to other citizens.

If it can be done properly without corruption, shortcuts, i believe it will bring a very big change to lives in Nigeria.

monkeyleg:
why cant we face up to the truth in Nigeria? the truth is really hard to swallow. Can soemone please tell me how Nigeria is working as one entity?

Ok. Nigeria is not working as one entity.

The solution to the problem is in finding out why Nigeria is not working as one entity.

So, i want to ask, why is Nigeria not working as one entity?

Sound like a brilliant idea, especially the pension for the rest of their life.

The only problem will be proper implementation is Nigeria. We have lots of corrupt people all over Nigeria including the forces.

If the can be kept completely free of corruption, they may even be able to serve as the model for transformation in the other forces in Naija.

frosbel:
I have noticed with many comments here on Nairaland  , that Nigerians in Diaspora tend to get insulted , abused and maligned when making comments that do not fit into the perspective of some Nairalanders.

Insults start flying around such as :

'go back to your one room rented apartment '

'go back to your beat'

' has your visa expired'

'when were you last home'

and a barage of more graphic abuse.


I have set up a poll to understand why such anger and hatred is channelled towards us Nigerians(Biafrans) who are very hardworking and live abroad hoping to make a positive contribution to our country .

What are your thoughts ?

i don't think you can use those two words interchangeably.

The only place i have heard people making a lot of noise for Nigeria to break up is Nairaland.

During all the recent protests, nobody said Nigeria should break up. Also, when i discuss Nigerian issues real life with my fellow Nigerians from other ethnicities, nobody cries break up.

There is so much power in the keyboard + internet. Its kind of like a video game. You can do anything you want.

Reality is a whole lot different my brothers!!!

We know the evils and problems we face. And we know the right things that ought to be done.

Very soon, am sure this picture will be circulating the web as the horrible face of Lagos.

What we need is to redefine the terminologies indigene and non indigene.

How can you have lived your whole life in a place and then some people tell you that you have no right to be there.

edoyad:
Then that's your problem, ofcourse i naturally won't know the imams and sultans you worship with.

You are so arrogant. I hope its not coz people can't see the person behind that screen name.

@post

Church leaders where is the church!!! Sorry, but we know the church leaders.

edoyad:
If you don't know Ojo and Adeniran then you obviously are not or have never been christian.
There will be no problems whatsoever, the only problem that could arise are border tensions but even that is a thousand percent better than people deceiving their selves they are one nation while killing themselves.
Very soon universal pressure groups calling for the break up will emerge, let us see how this rubbish will remain one

I don't know them. So, i guess i've never really been a christian.

violent:
Then fight for her at the next protest!

My brother, I will never stop fighting!!!

BTW, It seems the loudest noise about dividing Nigeria or not, is only on Nairaland. Thank God for internet anonymity.

mikeansy:
It is my humble opinion that it is time for us to get a little more serious a country.

A summon of the Libyan ambassador to Nigeria to protest and express displeasure would have been enough. This whole recall of Ambassador would simply keep what is a National shame in the International circles for a while.

It was not in Tripoli that people were killing their compatriots with Machetes. Its in Nigeria. My sense is that we should be more concerned with finding solutions to this babaric behaviour of some of our compatriots than engaging in diplomatic row with Libya.

Truly we live in an age long gone.

By the way talking about diplomatic row
What did we do when US enlisted us in terror list?
What did we do when Saudi Arabia will not allow Nigerians visit their President in Saudi Arabia?

Ghadaffi may have said what we don't want to hear as a Nation, but between January and Now close to 800 Nigerians have been massacred from either side and their was no drastic response from the Nigerian Government. But when Ghadaffi in showing concern over the human massacres puts  a questionmark on the "sacred concept ONE NIGERIA". All of a sudden our Government is alive and awake once more.

I think we need to get a little bit more serious than that.

This is the reason why it is a good move. And besides, gadaffi made a careless, insensitive, inciting statement as far as "Nigeria" is concerned.

Guys on Nairaland can talk all day about dividing Naija, but leaders should be careful about what they say.

Great decision from Naija government.

Slowly but surely we'll get there.

Enough is enough !!!

(moved to tears)

I am proud to be a true Nigerian.

Fhemmmy:
What are we supposed to have done

We should do what we are best at doing!!!

Nigeria is the most violent country in the world - we complain
Nigeria is full of yahoo yahoo - we complain
Nigeria is full of terrorists - we complain
Nigeria is the happiest country in the world -we complain
Nigeria's economy is improving - we complain

I tire for us!!!

jumobi1:
If our leaders agree not to fight then there might be no fight. Remember we Nigerians are sheep. We've been sheep for 50 years now.

Our leaders are the problem. The current Nigerian situation favors them, and they will love for it to remain like that till infinity.

But we fight ourselves and we think we can divide into smaller countries.

First, we need to collectively deliver ourselves from the cabal. After that, then we can discuss. Otherwise, nothing dey happen.

We are not even seriously considering breaking up and we are already at war with each other(Jos). With the mentality of a lot of Nigerian ethnic groups, we can't even sit together to discuss issues affecting every Nigerian objectively.

Rather we prefer to be sentimental and create imaginary boundaries(Nairaland).

In my opinion, breaking up Nigeria will result in war that will probably last for a while.

With the recent violence in Jos, inciting statements like this should not be tolerated.

If we had a serious government, the group that made that statement should be arrested and persecuted.

To people saying non indegenes should leave, is sokoto not part of Nigeria? They can leave if they want to, but not because somebody is forcing them to.

The problem with naija is no justice, everybody running his mouth and claiming freedom of speech. Even in the so called "free world" you can't talk like this.

@wirinet

I agree with you and you have strong and valid points too.

The problem i see is that the decay in Lagos has been so extensive and it has affected everything about the state.

The dilemma any lagos governor with people's interest will face is where do i start?

And no matter where you start, the beginning will always look hopeless, because innocent people will suffer. It will definitely be frustrating for the people as well as the government.

And that is the delicate stage where it gets very easy to give up. I'm sure we've all experienced situations like that in our lives where you don't know where to start and every way you turn seems to have large obstacles.

But this is where we all need to encourage ourselves.

As per clearing up the market, i am in full support of it. I also hope the displaced citizens who were truly looking to make a little buck to survive get relocated.

wirinet:
You have spoken but you have said nothing. Since you are more adept at google than i am, why don't you do me a favour by posting your google links, so we have have something concrete to discuss.

Also you know that it is not practicable for me to visit all the local Governments in Lagos compile all Fashola's projects, but since i follow the various media, it should be easy to know fashola's projects.

I live in Ikorodu, so i can at least tell you Fashola's impact in Ikorodu. There are no new roads in Ikorodu, in fact no road expansion project had taken place in Ikorodu. Fashola is developing a new housing estate in Igbogbo.

Since you are more knowledgeable than most of us, please give us updated statistics on fashola's projects, especially the ones that benefits the masses.


How many new roads have Fashola built (Please do not give me renovated or expanded rod)

How many new hospitals has Fashola built.

How many new primary and secondary schools; I remember the day i was taking a bus form Marako to Ajah, with lots of secondary school students from Victoria Island Secondary School - built by Jakande. I was Inform that there in no public school in the Ajah- Jakande Axis, and children of poor parents who cannot afford private school, has to attend the VISS opposite mobil head office. Please contradict their claims.

How many new markets has Fashola built.

How many new water schemes has fashola built.

How many new housing estates has fashola built and what is their cost.

When we discuss, lets argue with facts and statistics and not conjectures and assumptions

Problem with Naija is not new things, we need to fix and maintain the old things we have.

We need to take care of all the old things we have, hospitals, roads and all.

Before we start to build new things, we need to be able to take care of the old.

forpeace:
You are such a fool. . do you think everything is about politics? ?we are talking about human lives here. . .people who have lost their sources of livelihood for themselves and their families. .

we are presented with hard facts as to how fashola is turning the entire state to his personal enterprise and you are here talking mandate group? ?who cares what that means

Greedy and selfish politicians like urself and BRF think the polity is all urs to do and manipulate as you please at the expense of lives.

i have news for u Dr . . . .CHANGE IS COMING. .and the likes of you,lafe and others will soon become neighbours with bode george

We earnestly await the change. But it has to be better than what Governor Fashola has done already because Mr. Governor has already raised the bar for his successors.

Lagos will not have anything less any more.

ow11:
Why isn't this in the culture section? The whole idea of the article and this thread is dumb. I can't see an article insisting that Enugu is an Igbo city. 

Leave who 'owns' a town and live there before we get another Berom/Hausa saga in PH. Many people who claim to be indigenous to PH would say their tribe is Ikwerre or Okrika so wtf is this thread trying to achieve?

Even if they all admit that they are now members of the Igbo tribe, how would that change the lives of the average man on the streets of PH? People are busy looking for water on Mars and others are here insisting which tribe originated from where!

My brother, i tire for Nairaland/nigeria. What does it matter if PH is an igbo city or not.

We are the problems of Nigeria. We draw lines where lines do not need to be, and then we get mad when other people cross it.
