SECRET FERTILITY SYSTEM: August 2011

INFECTIVE AGENTS CAUSING LOW SPERM COUNT

Like in most leadership area of life in the world, men always want to be on top of issues. So also in infertility, men like to feel that they cannot be the cause, and this has led to very disastrous situations, they always feel that the problem is the women, so they refuse to do any test initially, because they will tell you that during their fling years they had impregnated not less than 5 girls especially when they where single and so cannot be the cause of the infertility, they do not realize that the only thing that cannot change in life is CHANGE itself, they may be okay 6 months ago but now they could be having severe low sperm count.

In my many years of practice, I have seen not one but many cases where a lady comes to the clinic for infertility, we spend so long time testing her even when she is normal, however the husband refuses to come for any test until the lady crosses 35 years of age and now suffer from fibroids and other hormonal problems, now she herself has now become a major cause of the infertility, when eventually the man comes for the test, we discover that he has low sperm count, if he had checked himself earlier and treatments done, the couple could have become pregnant and not fall into this situation. This must stop.

After scanning the scrotum of a male infertility patient so many years ago I was very frank with him and told him that from what I have seen, it will take a miracle for him to impregnate any women, that he should seek assisted reproductive techniques. It will look as if I was too firm, but I simply said the truth, when he was young he had bilateral testicular torsions that was improperly treated and eventual led to the death of his testes, though before my scanning he never knew that his testes are just DEAD BALLS, they were very tiny and abnormal looking. As I am writing this article he has remained infertile with 0% sperm count.

Low sperm count also called OLIGOSPERMIA is one of the main causes of male infertility, it is considered that a man has low sperm count when he has less than 20 million spermatozoa per milliliter of ejaculate.

There are some men that are particularly prone to low sperm count, They include those that are:

[1] Being age 35 or older

[2] Smoking tobacco

[3] Abusing alcohol

[4] Using certain illegal drugs

[5] Being overweight

[6] Being underweight

[7] Having certain past or present infections

[8] Being exposed to toxins

[9] Overheating the testicles

[10] Having a prior vasectomy or vasectomy reversal

[11] Being born with a fertility disorder or having a blood relative with a fertility disorder

[12] Having certain medical conditions, including tumors and chronic illnesses

[13] Undergoing medical treatments, such as surgery or radiation for cancer

[14] Taking certain medications

[15] Bicycling for long periods, especially on a hard seat or poorly adjusted bicycle

[16] Have had a badly treated testicular torsion in the past

There are many reasons for low sperm count, but the most confirmed major reason is infection. Some infectious diseases that can lead to low sperm count are:

(a) PROSTATITIS: This is the swelling and inflammation of the prostate gland, a walnut sized gland located directly below the bladder in men. The prostate gland produces fluid (SEMEN) that nourishes and transport sperm. Prostatitis often cause painful and difficult urination, pain in the joints, pelvic area and genitals and sometimes causes fever like symptoms. Prostatitis can be caused by bacterial infections and chronic prostatitis can lead to low sperm count

(b) EPIDIDYMITIS: This is a medical condition in which there is an inflammation of the epididymis (a curved structure at the back of the testicle in which sperm matures and is stored). This comprises gradual onset of testicular pains that can vary from mild to severe leading to the scrotum becoming red, warm and swollen. The major cause of epididymis is infection especially in sexually active men, where Chlamydia trachomatis is the most frequent causative bacteria, other are E.coli, Niesseria Gonorrhea and staphylococcus aureus. Epididymitis is another major cause of low sperm count

(c) ORCHITIS: This is an inflammation of one or both testicles, it is caused by bacteria, including sexually transmitted disease such as gonorrhea and Chlamydia or very resistant staphylococcus aureus. Orchitis often result from epididymis, in this case it is called epididymo-orchitis. Symptoms of orchitis are similar to those of testicular torsion, such as ejaculation of blood, hematuria (blood in urine), severe pain, visible swelling of a testicle or testicles and often the inguinal lymph modes in the affected side. Orchitis is a major cause of low sperm count.

STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS AND LOW SPERM COUNT

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterial infection that is highly resistant to some antibiotics. Staphylococcus aureus is a common type of bacteria that normally live on the skin and sometimes in the nasal passages of healthy people.

MRSA refers to Staph. aureus strains that do not respond to some of the antibiotics used to treat staph infections. The bacteria can cause infection when they enter the body through a cut, sore, catheter, or breathing tube. The infection can be minor and local (for example, a pimple), or more serious (involving the heart, lung, blood, or bone).Serious staph infections are more common in people with weak immune systems. This includes patients in hospitals and long-term care facilities and those receiving kidney dialysis.

Though staphylococcus aureus is not a venereal disease like Chlamydia or gonorrhea, but have been found in the laboratory samples of patients with low sperm count, indicating that they are also a cause of low sperm count especially in chronic stage. So like any other bacteria infection thorough treatment is necessary.

TESTS FOR LOW SPERM COUNT.

When a man suffers low sperm count or infertility, he must initially undergo series of tests such as:

A) Seminal Fluid Analysis and Culture (SFA)

B) Urine m/c/s

C) Full Blood Count

D) Test to screen for Chlamydia

E) Scrotal testicular ultrasound scan

F) Hormonal profile test

TREATMENT

a. ANTIBIOTICS: If the infected is caused by bacteria (in the case of gonorrhea or Chlamydia, sexual partner must also be treated) even in case of staphylococcus aureus.

b. SPERM BOOSTERS: After treating infection. It does not mean that the sperm count will improve, so the sperm count has to be worked on to the improved them.

In cases of chronic low sperm count and persisting infertility, 2 or 3 attempts of assisted pregnancy techniques like Sperm Washing and IUI must be tried. Sperm washing and IUI is a very good treatment for low sperm count, because during process of sperm washing, the sperm count is artificially concentrated and improved to normal count and then the washed sperms are injected into the female womb, hoping it will lead to pregnancy.

SPIRITUAL INSIGHT INTO INFERTILITY

Hi Friend,

Most of the time I like to remain secular in things of religion and medical practice. Maybe I was inspired more to write on it because of my last Friday’s attendance of a super praise night at the church were I must confess the spirit really moved me big time.

In my over 17years of practice I have been hearing many stories from my clients about the effect of evil forces on their fertility, and how it can be causing them the lose of many pregnancies or have left them impotent.

Recently a very close friend of mine who is a consultant in medicine for over a decade had a serious heart condition that almost cost him his life, he is not one to believe so much in spiritual matters, until the condition got out of hand, he was advised by family members to seek spiritual help. It was after consulting a minister, and was offered prayers, before his condition was adequately diagnosed in India and he went through a successful surgery.

Many of us who have spent most of our lives as born again christians and have always been under the protection of God have taken the attacks of the evil ones and his agents for granted. I gave my life to God in the early 1990’s and have remained a believer since then, though I have fought many battles since then and overcame through the Grace of God. So I always believe everyone should be able to overcome and that the effects of the evil one and his agents should be null and void, but of course I am wrong, because a lot of people are really under these attacks especially in area of fertility, it is very serious.

Recently I had this very good client of mine who have been suffering from infertility for a long time, she is just in her early forties and her menstrual periods have stopped for over 2 years now. I have attended to this type of cases many times but I have never thought of any spiritual explanations to it, until she gave me this story, she told me that her menses had been coming normally until one day she slept and had a terrible dream, where two women were pouring out her kegs of oil until they emptied it out,

She woke up that morning to have the heaviest and longest menstruation of her life. After that she stopped seeing her periods for almost two years (menopause), imagine that, naturally as believer we know the interpretation of that dream, simple, she has been attacked by witches.

I have this male patient who has been suffering from low sperm count and infertility for donkey years, where we had to treat him recently by sperm washing. He also told me a story. He informed me that he had a dream or vision, where he saw an old lady with an old calabash or earthen vessel, and he was made to ejaculate and pour his sperms [semen] into the calabash, since then he had been suffering from low sperm count all these years that even led him to surgery.

Imagine these stories. I believe you must have many stories of your own, anyway I am the one telling it, and I am in a privileged position to hear many.

The ones that I have been told that are so many are the ones of miscarriages, the stories on that have been different. Some say that after becoming pregnant, they have seen either a horned goat or cow running into their abdomen in the dream and they woke up to find out that they are bleeding, others see red cloths, others found themselves in a meeting where someone surgically removed the baby.

In fact the stories and dreams are so many that if I had to write them all, they will fill out all the space, however I will tell you one more.

A certain lady who had been suffering from infertility for many years told her own dream and vision as this, that she was sleeping and an old woman came, put her hands into her lower abdomen, just like hot knives slicing through butter and took out her womb, after many trials she found out she could not get pregnant, she visited so many doctors and was tested numerously, all the tests confirm that she and her husband are okay but the infertility condition remained.

Somehow all these stories to a logical mind might look like either fabrications or self denial of one’s condition, but as a believer I believe there is some truth in them and they have some negative effects on those that had them by physically causing them infertility, low sperm count, miscarriages, difficulties In deliveries, fibroids, no ovulation and unnecessary surgeries that leads to no where.

As a medical practitioner and also a believer, I believe everyone must be in the middle and do not have to over spiritualize issues and also do not under spiritualize them. I have had many couples who are suffering from infertility that told me they believe their condition is spiritual and have given up taken treatment or seeking medical help and have turn rather to fasting and prayer and so called waiting on God.

I have always pointed out to them anytime I meet them, that just fasting and prayer, staying at home will not help them, they must seek medical help because God himself created the medical practitioners to help them, ignoring them is also disobedience to God and will lead to unpalatable consequences, many believe so much in their pastors and almost take them as their medical advisers, this is very dangerous, the bible says give to God what belong to God and to Caesar what belong to Caesar. This is simple, leave the spiritual part of your problem to your pastor to handle and also at the same time seek medical help continually for your problems to be solved. Do not just go one way, it is very dangerous, I have seen many women in my years of practice that ended up losing their fertility , their pregnancy, or their lives because of such fanatical believe on their pastors, who always advised them not to seek medical help because he will pray for them and God will heal them.

As many as I can I always give them this illustration, that if they have a piece of cloth that need to be sown into a gown, skirt, blouse or coat and they do not have any money or they believe they are so spiritual, why do they not take the piece of cloth to their pastor or man of God to fast and pray that the piece of cloth should turn to sown skirt and blouse. Rather they take it straight to a fashion designer or tailor, but when it comes to matters of their health they will take it to men of God and not to a medical practitioner who is trained and specialized in such matters. This is dangerous and need to stop. As the scripture says, prayer without work is nothing, so also seeking spiritual help for a problem without seeking medical help or ignoring medical advice is also vain and God himself will wash his hand off that problem.

I had this patient recently who has been suffering from infertility and also have large fibroids, she was weeping why me? that when her sister got married she easily got pregnant and had her children, while in her own case she suffered infertility when she got married. I informed her that medically her condition is not new, because she married in her late thirties, ovulation problems and fibroid problems including infertility are not uncommon at that age, so that problem is not really a spiritual matter. In fact many of the problems suffered latter as infertility are caused by ignorance, imagine a young lady who have done many bad abortions in her school days and the womb was badly damaged then (Though unknown to her), when she latter get married and suffer infertility, she will definitely blame it on one evil spirit or some man or woman, also imagine a man who have lived a very promiscuous life and now suffers from low sperm count, he will always blame it on something.

I will always advise any couple suffering from infertility to always fast and pray, then seriously seek medical help from qualified medical practitioners, they must undergo all the relevant medical tests and repeat them after 2 years until they get the solution, because most fertility tests I must confess are also some form of treatment, that have really helped infertility couples to conceive.

I most also advise couples that are married for more than two years to also try 2 or 3 cycles of assisted pregnancy techniques like, Sperm washing with IUI, it could just do it.

Finally give your life to God

Do not glorify Satan

Have faith and believe that you are healed and expect your miracle.

I have heard many infertility patients telling me that they have stopped trying and are now waiting for God’s miracle, that is foolishness, if you have a business that is not moving do you pray and stay at home and expect the business to succeed. How do you think God feels when you pray and fail to do nothing. Your chance of succeeding is slim.

So act now and do what is right.
