LOW SPERM COUNT,LOW FSH AND HIGH PROGESTERONE
Dear Stella and Doctors in the house,
I write this mail with a heavy heart and eyes full of tears.
DH and I have been TTC for a year and 6 months now. We have done several test such as semen analysis, pelvic scan, TVS, and some hormonal test such as FSH, progesterone, estradiol, FBC etc.
Test result says DH's semen is quite low and he was placed on some drugs such as manix and parlodel. While mine says I have a low FSH and very high progesterone.
The gynecologist said I won't be stimulated yet till DH's sperm quality gets high. While DH's urologist said he will have to run another test for him (urologist) to ascertain the effects of the drugs he has been taking.
But the issue now is that DH has been rebooked to see the urologist in December, meaning that after this 2nd test, we will fold our hands till December before anything can be done.
1) Please what can we do on our own to increase his sperm quality?
2) what can we do to increase my FSH and decrease my progesterone?
Note: I have taken clomid once which increased the follicles but you know I have only 2 cycles left to take it as it is advised to be taken in just 3 cycles so I am not considering it.
BV Kehinde, please contibute o!

ReplyDeleteIs well
DeleteFor DH he sud improve his fruit intake especially banana and take vit e and c regularly. 4 u dnt wori much.... at d due time u can have ur ovulation induction pill to hlp u ovulate so dat it coincides wit when hubby improves. Bt d worst case scenario is an IVF
DeleteHow low is your FSH? Because i know that high levels of FSH could mean decreased ovarian reserve as it means d brain has to work harder to release an egg especially when stimulated.high progesterone is bad though but there are drugs for it. Work on dh sperm first then if its not improving tou go d ivf route. Atimes nothing really can be done about sperm . All d best
DeleteIt's well with you. You shall carry your young in Jesus name. Amen
ReplyDeleteAmen
DeleteBV Kehind Ake, your attention is needed here asap. @Poster receive you babies IJN

Dear Poster,

There may not be much you will hear here that your doctor might not have shared with you. You are on the right path having a Consultant Specialist manage the situation. I'd advise that you stick with him and not resort to medications or supplements that can alter his progress. Nevertheless, you can aid your DH by helping with his lifestyle habits while he waits for his results.
1. Abstinence /reduction in intake of alcohol or cigar.
2. Let him take cold baths rather than hot or warm baths than interfere wiith sperm production.
3. Bring to notice of your doctor if he is on ulcer medications, some of them mess with sperm production.
4. Avoid intake of normal milk or dairy products. Many of them are rich in hormones that increase estrogen and subsequently sperm health.
5. Stop consumption of coffee or caffeine beverages.
6. Eat yam, carrots, oranges, green vegetables, unripe plantain, bananas,red pepper, oatmeal, green lettuce, spinach, sweet potatoes, walnuts, fish, sea foods, avocado, yoghurt, pumpkin seeds, corn, beans (yes beans). These foods contain Vit A, B, C, Omega 3 fatty , acids etc
7. Eggs help to raise the sperm count by preventing tissue degeneration with Vit E properties.
8. Beef. It prevents the conversion of progesterone into estrogen.
9. Turkey rather than chicken.
10. Maintain an ideal weight. My list is never without exercises. Make sure Oga eats well as being malnourished is reverse for sperm production. Being over weight too is bad. So let him exercise and keep a perfect BMI.
N.B: please do not subscribe to any other drugs or supplements other than what your doctor prescribes. Follow through with his treatment. If you are not satisfied, seek a qualified medical opinion. Success with the endeavors.
Thank you so much sex expert, you are a smart man, I was waiting for you to start saying, God take control, jesus in charge, pray pray pray, faith faith faith!
DeleteUnfortunately science has already explained life, sooooo god isn't needed.
*explains
DeleteYou have started the medical journey I'd suggest yoube ppatient. What if BVS suggest something for both of you and it interfers with the drugs you have been taking thereby taking you back to square one or even causing more damage. Please be patient and above all prayer is the master key.
ReplyDeleteYour right. Be patient.
DeleteBe patient.Be patient.Be patient
DeleteBe patient pls
DeleteThat's right. You have to relax as well and stop worrying yourself, though it's easier said than done but I am in your shoes. Stop worrying and let God take control. Your womb is blessed and your husband's seem is also blessed in Jesus name.
DeleteThank you. Are unlicensed Internet advices more competent than your doctors advice?

DeleteChoi so no kpenshing for u be dat? Eyaaah sooryy ooooh. #cantimagine
ReplyDeleteYour stupidity knows no bounds
DeleteSmall mind
DeleteOgbono soup help in boosting sperm count. God will see u through.
ReplyDeleteOya our doctors dem pls help dIs woman, I feel you pain ma'am. But remember dat doctors are humans not God. Don't depend on dem but God
ReplyDeleteI think you should just wait till December that you have been scheduled because they want to be sure his semen is ok by then.
ReplyDeleteFor ths Fsh is i had the same issue not long ago mine was even high prolactin,period was too low but was asked to take parlodel and that drug is a demon on its own.i was given bromergon to subside the effects and also clomid was added to enable me ovulate.
I will advise to chill,if i end up pregnant dis month i won't be going back to check my prolactin and fsh level. God knows how to finish his work hold on and faith.
I have been waiting for 4yrs with 4miscarriages but i know my laughter is next,please don't stop praying.
Goodluck
Big Big HUGS!
DeleteI pray for you that God will bless you with your triplet,by this time next year. I love ur faith!
Life is truely unfair,we have people aborting babies while some people just need atleast a child.
May God bless all the women TTC on this blog with their many children soonest!
I was in ur shoes anon 12:55. Took all dem drugs for a period of tym. Then 2months after I stopped(I was to go back and repeat the hormonal assay) I took it. Kai! My joy knew no bounds. A pregnancy free of any sickness, cravings and whateva that comes with pregnancy. Most times I forgot I was preg. After abt 2 months, I had miscarriage. But I have refused to let the devil smile cos I no God has healed me and I wud soon conceive and bear my twins. NNE, I pray u wud conceive and wudnt have to go back for a repeat. The money no be small thing
DeleteWe know misconception about faith often open door to doubt, because they can create false expectations or misunderstanding about the nature of God.
DeleteIf people incorrectly think God is going to heal everyone or make everyone wealthy if they can just exhibit sufficient faith or patience, they can fall prey to doubt when illness strikes or bankruptcy loom.
Science is the only way possible
Stick with the doctors while you have God. God is still the CEO of miracles!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is may your long wait for a child be over soon.
ReplyDeleteE-hugs dear.
Lord take charge. Poster, all will end in praise.

ReplyDeleteI have been ttc for 4yrs, but I had 4miscarriages I still didn't give up. Hubs spermcount has been good I am the one with high prolactin and fsh was too low. I was given parlodel whichvis evil, but the gynae had to change it to bromergon also added Clomid which am positive my pregnancy is happening soon.
It took me a long while but I want you hold on to God and don't stop believing.
The only plan that will work witout any other plan is Jesus christ,y dnt u ask him 4 solution.
ReplyDeleteThe only plan A that will work witout any B to Z is Jesus christ,y dnt u ask him 4 solution.
ReplyDeleteGod is our greatest Physician. HE will heal you and ur DH. Having ur own children is sure, jus trust in HIM.
ReplyDeleteWait till December, While waiting Pray.
ReplyDeleteMy dear u guys are already doing it right.With those drugs up there,am sure everytin will be fine.Considering ur hormonal imbalance,i will advise u relax urself and mind first.Remember that stress is one of the causes of hormonal imbalance.The Drs line of treatment is good so follow it and pray.God bless.
ReplyDeleteYou have started following a certain therapy, why don't you face that for now?. The advice you will receive might cause more harm than good to ur progress.
ReplyDeletei thought low fsh was good unless yours is crazy low even then, i think it can be fixed.
ReplyDeletedont let anyone put pressure on u hun! u are on the right track already seeing a gynae.
and if all fails there's always ivf so pace yourself, get involved in other sturvs and have fun. Pikin go come and by then u wont be able to just get up and go out anyhow. Enjoy the mean time dear...
Life can be so unfair.
ReplyDeleteThe tot dat sum pple r so blessed dat al dey eva wana do is to terminate or abandoned der babies in a dumpsite bring cold shiver down my spine.
My Dear no time for tears o,Rise up n pray for prayer is d master key.

ReplyDeleteDoctors Care buh
ReplyDeleteGod Heals.
I refused to do a test my doctor asked me to do after trying for 7 months,when i got home i asked DH to knee down and lets complain to God, the next month i missed my period and i went back to the hospital when i met my Doctor he requested for the lab result, i told him i came for my antenatal registration he asked me how come? I answered him it was God... So dear poster pray to God and countine trying and am very sure he will hear urs too. Doctors are not God.
ReplyDeleteU were seeing u period na. Some ppl r not seeing theirs talk more of missing it. Prayer is the key though. And nothing is wrong with seeking medical help.
DeleteHahaha, make una stay away from tiny, big, long dicks with different spems, abortion and cancer prevention pills that ends up messing your womb with fibrosis
DeleteIs it only one Urologist that is available in Nigeria? Both of u should be treated at same time to save time. Why was ur hubby placed on parlodel n manix? He shouldn't be needing the two at same time, was hormonal profile done for him after the semen analysis? If yes, then it may have shown that the testosterone is low n his prolactin is high, which if this is the case, he only needs d parlodel to bring down the prolactin, then testosterone will automatically go high. Pls visit another Dr for urself. Since both of u have issues, one shouldn't be kept on hold for another.
ReplyDeleteIt is well with you o poster.just be patient..in the mean time,let DH increase his fruits and vegetable intake.vitamin C and zinc helps to boost sperm count. If he's fat,let him watch his weight ,and exercise more. Heat can also reduce sperm production. Hot baths, sitting for long periods of time,carrying laptops on his laps and tight-fitting underwear that constricts the testes can all elevate temperatures long enough to suppress sperm production.hope you guys have been tested and treated for infection?
ReplyDeleteAbove all my dear,pray for God's favour and grace.
I'll be praying for you.
Bv apart from HSG PELVIN SCAN and HIGHT PROLATIN TEST IS THERE TEST THAT ONE CAN DO AGAIN TO CHECK INFATILITY
ReplyDeleteIt is well....Be hopeful.
ReplyDeleteI won't advise you just fold arms and wait, I will advise u take up faith and do the thing instead of waiting, not for it to result to pregnancy but for u guys to have fun on ur own, who knows it may even enter then. God is only to be looked upto in this matter, Doctors have done their best let God handle the rest.
ReplyDeleteHold on, December is here already.
ReplyDeleteGod is still a miracle worker
Be patient with your doctor's med appointment. December isn't so far dear.
ReplyDeleteposter it is well with you and hubby, you need to be patient for now you will carry your twins soon.
ReplyDeleteJst be patient madam,take us doctor's advice n believe God for a miracle
ReplyDeleteMy dear just listen to what the doctors are advising, dont let Bv's come and advise you when they are not doctors. Your issue is abit complex. Why not also get a 2nd opinion from another hospital if you can afford it. IVF is also an option, the success rate is quite high nwdays and i hear some clinics do installmental payments for procedures.
ReplyDeleteAbove all keep having sex with ur husband if its even daily sef, and keep praying. You may never know without all dese drugs God will just do wonders.
Best wishes poster.
ReplyDeleteDoctors in the house over to you. Bv Kehinde, your attention is needed. Jesus the mighty healer, take control.
ReplyDeleteI heard chewing of water melon seeds helps to boost low sperm. Don't worry, all will be well by God's grace. hugs
ReplyDeleteYou people should ask your doctors for these information abeg, don’t go spoiling your chances with unlicensed Internet advice

Try Jesus honey. Many Christians are yet to understand what God meant about bringing EVERYTHING to him in prayers. He made sex and procreation for marriage, so use his word and tell him to let his word come to pass in your lives. there's nothing wrong if you tell him your husbands sperms is weak. As long as it's your husband and not your bf.
ReplyDeleteDear poster, first I would say pray. Prayer is the key that unlocks impossibilities. Keep praying don't give up on God cos he won't give up on you. Next I would say u and ur hubby should try and live a healthy life eat good and healthy foods (vegetables, fruits, low carb diet, drink lots of water, avoid fizzy and carbonated drinks eg Coke, exercise regularly). above all again keep praying, go on ur knees to God and cry like Hannah did and be positive and keep trying u never know u could take in during this period.

MEN WILL HAVE UNPROTECTED SEX WITH EVERYTHING THEY SEE IN SKIRT AND MAKE COUNTLESS GIRLS TO ABORT THEIR UNWANTED PREGNANCIES. WHEN THE MEN'S THING HAS ALMOST STOPPED WORKING, THEY WILL LOOK FOR ONE GOOD GIRL TO MARRY. BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, THE "GOOD GIRL" WILL BE GOING FROM PRAYER HOUSE TO PRAYER HOUSE, NATIVE DOCTOR TO NATIVE DOCTOR AND HOSPITAL TO HOSPITAL IN SEARCH OF THE FRUIT OF THE WOMB.
ReplyDeleteTHE WIFE WILL BE THERE FASTING AND CRYING WITHOUT KNOWING THAT IT'S HER DOG-HUSBAND'S FAULT
ALL YE MEN DOING THIS SHIT, GOD IS WATCHING YOU!!!

1000mg vitamin C daily
400 to 600iu vitamin E daily
100mg zinc daily
A capsule daily of multivtamin for men(ordinary wellman or supramult) these are supplements.
Then water(very important) make him take At least 2 big eva bottle water for d whole day. Let him try this and he will be glad he did.
Let him always place his hands on his manhood and pray. When u are praying at night or when u fast lay ur hand on his manhood and pray for him.
His meals: Encourage him to eat clean. He should avoid cabonated water(coke and all in this category), Parked juice, sugar(give him pure honey instead). Coffee, milo and others in this category should be avoided but ones a while if he must take it.
You can make him different dishes from unripe plantain with ugu or spinach, tomatoes, onions, 2boiled eggs per week, beans, soups rich in vegetables, snails/ or make crab peppersoup once in 2days for him, tiger nuts, handful walnuts. Once in a week make him ugu juice and a tin of peak milk before he sleeps.
