IVF? Amniocentesis and subsequent termination of SS foetuses? Op, please, i know it will not be easy, but it is safer if you do not go into such a marriage at all. I'm not being pessimistic, but you are asking for a lifetime of regrets. My parents did the same and they are even not together anymore. Where is Abali1 |

rutchiekens: A bone marrow transplant is the transfusion of blood into a sickle cell carrier, dat is not prevention, it is cure. And its usually used for SS children. |

Mynd44: God has given us common sense. You can't refuse to apply it and egger into the wahala blindly and expect God to save you. He can though but why are you trying to test God? It's still avoidable. I've been in this case twice and I know how it feels. |

bigmodo: What options are available for a couple with the same A.S genotype so they wont produce S.S children, please assist us. Well, i also talked to a medical personnel about this also, and i was given two options; (1)When you are pregnant, there is a way u can find out if d baby is a full carrier of the sickle cell (SS), this test can be carried out when the baby is like 3-5 months...if it is discovered dat the baby is SS, u can abort But i must day the test is very expensive, u can get it done at south africa, i heard there's one in abuja but am not sure. (2)U can go for IVF (In vitro fertilisation) IVF is better because u can get to select the gene of ur baby urself, ur sperm will be tested and when the get good ones(that does not contain d sickle cell carrier), it will be injected in2 ur wife and off u go. However, IVF can be done in nigeria, but the test to screen out sickle cell sperm carrier, am not sure its being done in nigeria. If u need details, i can give ur contacts of health facilities in UK, SA who handle such God bless 2 Likes |

Am from a family of three sicklers. My mum would always larment that if she had known what this genotype issue was, she would not have gotten married to andoa AS. @ OP if you can take the fact that you would always send 10days at the hospital( intensive care Unit) where you would be exposed to all manner of deaths and negetive talks, Go ahead and make this Mistake. P.S I lost an Elder sister to dis too. She was 19yrs then. The remaining ones have been placed on medications. Which try to reduce their crises. But when it comes they are given PENTAZOCINE Injections (30grams) to hlp subside it. MY 2cents. 1 Like |

Well the AS/AS thing is bit complicated. If they marry, they have a 25% chance of having SS in each pregnancy. What can they do if they still want to get married; 1, PRENATAL DIAGNOSIS : at the 11th to 13th week of pregnancy, they can go for test such as Chorionic villi sampling or Amniocentesis. These test are run at the SICKLE CELL FOUNDATION OF NIGERIA, located opposite LUTH, Idi araba, lagos. Costs #250k - #300k. If the foetus's genotype is discovered to be SS, then they could decide to terminate the pregnancy. If however AS or AA, then xcellent. This has to be done for every pregnancy they have. The tests carry just a mild risk overall. 2. PREIMPLANTATION GENETIC SCREENING. Heard Its more expensive, and i cant tell u where its done in naija, cos i dont have info on that. It involves, invitro fertilization and screening of embyos to get the suitable ones for the couples and re implanting in the uterus. The 3rd option, is the most xpensive and that is actually given birth to an SS child and then having a bone marrow transplant to cure the child. I heard it has been done at UBTH Benin and it costs #7million. Pls checkout the website of scfn. Sickle cell foundation of nigeria for details on the cvs and amniocentesis. 1 Like |

This is a dicey situation. I know of a couple with AS genotype each, that got married, they have 5 children. It was only the first born dat was SS, the rest were either AA or AS. The SS is 30+ and married today. Though it wasnt easy bringing her up. My submission is; take ur time and get AA that will complement your person because its not worth the risk! I tell ya |

WE HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE 1 IN EVRY 4 CHILD BEING AN SS CARRIER. SEE THEIR FACES RECITING IT LIKE A MANTRA. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A SOLUTION, STOP GIVING WRONG ADVICE! MANY PEOPLE CAN COMFORTABLY BUY 2 PLOTS OF LAND FOR 1.5MILLION NAIRA PER PLOT, WHY CAN'T THEY SACRIFICE 1.2 - 2.2 MILLION NAIRA TO GET THEIR TWINS OR TRIPLETS AND THEN STOP BEARING CHILDREN WE BUY THE LATEST CARS FOR MUCH MORE THAN THAT. WE ARE TIRED OF HEARING YOU RECITE WHAT YOU LEARNT IN SECONDARY SCHOOL - "1 IN 4 CHILDREN...25% OUT OF 100 ETC GOOGLE, BING, YAHOO ETC WILL GIVE YOU RELEVANT INFO YOU LAZY LOT! ITS IRRITATING WHEN PEOPLE DON'T DO RESEARCH AND THEN HIDE UNDER RELIGION [size=13pt]STOP PRETENDING TO CARE FOR THE OP AND ACTUALLY HELP OUT!!![/size] 5 Likes 1 Share |
