Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by spiceeamiee(f): 5:07pm On Nov 21, 2016
Good afternoon mamas. I have been following this thread since January when I was not even engaged talk less of married. I have never commented but I salute the great courage of everyone here and I want you people to know you are in my prayers. I got married three weeks ago and on Saturday, I found out I was pregnant. I could not believe my eyes. Let me share my testimony. In February this year, I started having painful cramps in my pelvic region. I thought they were period pains but since it was too early in the cycle, i then decided they were ovulation pains. However, this pains kept on coming anytime within my cycle. The pains were so strong that sometimes I would lay down and cry. In April it stopped so I did not bother going to the hospital. I got engaged in May and started preparing for my wedding in October. In June, the pains came back with great intensity. One day in July, the pain was so great I went to a hospital opposite my office. The doctor did pelvic scan and said I had excess fluid in my pouch of Douglas and said I should go for HVS. HVS result came back and the report was PID. HA! Mogbe!! I started reading up on PID and all the things I read scared me. I don't know where the PID came from as I and my fiancee were abstaining till wedding night. I started treatment. Did the first cycle for 3weeks then I was asked to do a repeat scan. Did the scan and the fluid was still in my pouch, in fact it had increased. I read so many articles online that said fluid in POD was a very bad thing. My sisters, between July and September, I spent a lot of money doing tests and buying drugs. I was devastated. How could I have an infection that could affect my fertility when I was getting married in two months time? I tried to pray but sometimes, I would just break down and cry. On 1st of October, I went to the hospital again and the doctor asked me to do hormonal profile and HSG to see if the PID had affected my tubes so I could know my options. I calculated the cost for both tests and it was almost 30k. I decided to use the money to sow seed in church cos I was tired of everything. I sowed the seed and just removed my mind and went on with my wedding preparations. Got married on the 29th of October and BDing started. Last week, DH touched my boobs and I shouted and jumped. My nipples were so painful. I was also having back pains and I even took Diclofenac for it. I also had bad cramps and I thought it was my period coming. Saturday morning I just play play say make I use one pt strip wey I buy. I had even forgotten I was doing a pt test cos I took my bath and washed some clothes. About two hours later, I saw the strip and it had two bold lines. I screamed. I quickly rushed to a nearby lab and did blood test and behold my sisters, It was positive. The Lord heard my cry and shut the mouth of the evils ones. He turned the report of the doctors around. He turned my mourning into dancing. The doctor said that the kind of fluid I had in my Pouch of Douglas can only indicate how far gone the PID damage to my uterus and fallopian tubes were but just three weeks after my wedding, here I am with the report of the Lord which says PREGNANT!! I pray for everyone here believing, the Lord who did it for me will do it for you. Thank you Onise Iyanu

DAY 3.
FSH 6.13 U/L

LH 5.89 U/L

PROLACTIN H35.74 NG/ML 5-25

DAY21

PROGESTERONE 2.92 NG/ML

cc: DonaTee, mamaTB, franklyfert, Stephaniecoa and all mamas and papas. thank you.
sorry for late response couldnt not comment being busy .

your prolactin levels is high as a result your progesterone is low. that value you have is a early pregnancy value .prolactin can interrupt the normal production of the hormones estrogen and progesterone. This can cause the ovaries to release eggs irregularly or stop altogether.so see your doctor give you drugs to handle the prolactin level and that will help to increase your progesterone to normal.if not then you can use progesterone pessaries or injection to support your cycle.

YOUR FSH and LH , looks good. treat your hyperprolactinemia and repeat the test before you proceed on any other thing.

In my case , prolactin is high abt 60+ the last time I checked but progesterone was normal not low at all about 30+ indicating I didn't ovulate. My dr said it shld be abt 40+ to indicate ovulation has occurred. I don't think prolactin and progesterone are dependent on each other. But I know studies associate high prolactin with pcos.
There are people who ovulate but have low progesterone issues and therefore miscarriage if not on progesterone support medication.

franklyfert please tell me something about my hormonal assay

hello dear, your high LH AND FSH on day 3 is an indication of a low ovarian reserve. to be very accurate you may do an AMH TEST. but this result is showing that your ovaries will respond poorly to stimulation

FSH is often used as a gauge of ovarian reserve. In general, under 6 is excellent, 6-9 is good, 9-10 fair, 10-13 diminished reserve, 13+ no response .

prolactin is ok.

your e2 level is ok but Levels on the lower end tend to be better for stimulating. Abnormally high levels on day 3 may indicate existence of a functional cyst or diminished ovarian reserve. you are towards the higher for a day 3 cycle

the progesterone level is fine but we could know how good this value Is, when i know the length of your cycle
Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by Nobody: 7:28pm On Nov 21, 2016
Hi mama, like the other sabi mamas has rightly said, your progesterone is low which could also means you did not ovulate (?). My suggestion would be for u to start progesterone injections or suppository 3days after ovulation as low progesterone could hinder implantation.
For the high prolactin, I strongly suggest you use parlodel 2.5mg twice daily. All the best mama.

Over sabi mamas una weldonoooo, baby dust to you all, i have been following this thread from background, sometimes i cry, sometimes i pray with you guys.

It happened that mine was a different case of SECONDARY INFERTILITY.

I had my baby 5years ago, fixed copper IUCD to complete masters degree, removed it after 2years, i was ttcing for 3years and 5months.

I did hormonal assay, it showed low LH and high FSH, every other things withinn normal limit.

I was placed on clomid for more than 3 consecutive cycle, ranging from 50mg once a day to twice a day, to 150mg twice a day. Nothing happened.

I graduated to HMG for 3days, followed by HCG on the 12day ie 36 hrs before ovulation , dear friends nothing happened, let me not bore you.

I read something on this thread about vit b6, folic acid and vit c, i browsed extensively about their dosage, i began to use it , removed my mind from everything, i locked up according one sister, even when they told to come for HSG i refused, my dh did seminalysis, the result was ok.
I even stoped counting my cycle

All of a sudden i was cooking my favourte soup banga, i began to vomit, i quickly lay my hands on a PT strip that is in my toilet, lo and behold it was POSITIVE.

Why am i writing this, i want to give back to this my beautiful sisters,

Give vit b6 a try, and i pray that this year will no pass you by. CONGRATULATIONS IN ADVANCE! SHALOM

Congrats to you! Wishing you a healthy and stress free 9 months! Pls concerning this vit b6, what dosage did you take? Is the dosage in pregnacare conception appropriate?

You can take maximum of 1000mg daily. Anything above that is excess. That's why I suggested to a mama to use up to 2000mg to induce af. Also note Vit B6 of 200mg over a long time isn't health wise. You can research more on that.

Click on anyone and you will get the info you want. Or you could copy and paste the person's name before replying. It's not nice being away only to read back and see the pages are filled with quoted long posts.

@ Orney, depends on the mg. Miraclebaby advised not more than 1000mg per day. The mama who used it to get her bfp took 500mg per day for 3 months.
I bought nature's field vit C 1000mg.

Look what I found.
