@Moradeyo21 Proviron is mesterolone, an anabolic steroid. This will prevent the testis from producing any sperm. He needs to stop it immediately. Are his testis smaller now? How long did he use it for? He needs to see an endocrinologist specialising in male fertility hormones.
Get him to do a a full hormone panel ie Testosterone, LH, FHS, Prolactin etc.
In simple terms Proviron floods the blood with testosterone which makes the testis stop producing test and LH. The testis can only produce sperm with the testosterone produces around the testis. He'll probably be prescribed Clomid, HCG and FSH but it depends on his results. Don't use any steroid that gives or mimics testosterone. Does he feel hot down there? If so, cool it with a gel pack in a sock cos you don't want the skin to get ice burns or just cool water in a sachet.
wow! This is well detailed!

this is really a difficult one even for ivf, except if he doesn’t mind donor sperm. Have the sfa always been like this? some medications can do the opposite atimes. So I suggest he retake the sfa when he is not taking anything and check. There is this fertility coach on Facebook ( coach kaffy) she can help him with his dieting and lifestyle, some men have been testifying how their azospermia improved after following her guideline.

@mummyneto the SFA has been like this, with drugs and herbs we expected an improvement, but no success yet. Thanks for you ma for your contribution.

@ Damilolly, the drugs were used 2 years ago but he stopped when we noticed there was no improvement, yes the testis is smaller. The 2 doctors we have seen so have recommended donor for ivf .But we are still hoping if we can learn from anyone who have had similar issue and what was done to increase the sperm account. Thanks for your contribution.

Origene Fertility Ikoyi Lagos and Ponders End Clinic Benin City are the two clinic's I'm aware of in Nigeria that have treated 0 sperm successfully. So try them. You shouldn't have to consider donor sperm without treating the issue first. Also, for ivf they can extract the sperm or aspirate from the testicles ie MTese. All the best.

Depends on the unit of measurement. A 'normal' AMH level is considered to be 1.0 ng/mL to 3.0 ng/mL.

LH. 18. 5-25mmol/L

PROGESTERONE. 3. 7-30mmol/L

PROLACTIN. 29. 7-35mmol/L

For the life of me, I still can't see your mail. I'm guessing it's a settings error or something and I've never had such an issue before.

If it's okay by you, you can drop it here and delete it immediately you see my response.

Good Evening all, I have been married for 5 years now and I have never been pregnant, my husband suggested ivf. After seeing a doctor in a general hospital, he advise we do hormonal profile, scan, SFA, vaginal swab. The result are all out . please kindly interpret them for me.

Do we have any chance on the SFA. Is there any drugs that can boost the count. He has used addyzoa and proviron in the past but still same. Kindly help a sister in need. May grant our heart desires.
I think you should check for varicocele ,through testicular scan& also homorne profile,Then treat infection .

Luth doesn’t do Laparascopy surgery, but if you need a consultant from Luth to do it for you at his own private hospital, send me a mail. Cost is between 350-400.
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Abokyaly: 10:14pm On May 28, 2023
This is not true. They still do laparoscopy surgery in LUTH.

hmmm, I’m not even arguing this. What LUTH does is laparoscopic test and not the surgery, except they started of late. 2 years ago a friend paid them for the surgery only for to be told at the theater that its only the examination they will conduct if anything is seen they are not carrying out any surgery, i had to call my doctor there and he confirmed they don’t do the surgery.
