486867 tn?1307139011 -( Our fertility doc told us jus 2 skip right over the IUI n go straight for the IVF since the mophology was so terrible. If you don't mind me asking, what was ur dh's morphology? Has ur doc told u what ur chances r of conceiving via IUI? I'm always so skeptical tho cuz i used 2 work 4 a doc n they're always trying 2 make as much money as possible.
Avatar m tn After seeing an endocrinologist who ran all types of blood work which came back normal with the exception of his estrogen level a bit higher then normal and had an X-ray of his hand which showed bones of a 13 half to 14 half yr old (I was told was good ) want to give my son arimidex. My question is......is this safe for teen boys. I read its not FDA approved for children.
Avatar f tn Anyone taking Arimidex or has taken it in the past. I am looking for feedback if it helped lower the ca 125??? My CA 125 is rising from 93 to 156 and now in the 230's... however nothing has changed on my pet scan and no measurable disease... I am seeing my onc on Monday...and he had recommended to try if i want Arimidex. I have other options like trying different chemo's... but then we are just treating the number... I wanted to give this a try.... what do you think...
Avatar n tn I have only had Arimidex. I only took it for about 2 months during my remission. I didn't really understand that it could have actually prevented my recurrence. It did cause a similiar bone pain to the carbo/taxol I had done. For that reason I quit taking it. There are doctors also using one now called Femara. Maybe one of those would work for you.
Avatar f tn There can be many different causes of infertility. The male causes of infertility are abnormal sperm production or function; problems with the delivery of sperm, overexposure to certain chemicals and pesticides etc.Fallopian tube blockage or damage, endomteriosis, hyperprolactinoma, ovulation disorders, hormonal imbalances, uterine fibroids are few causes of infertility related to females. A general physical examination and semen analysis of your husband is essential.
1358758 tn?1390767067 Anyone ttc despite male factor infertility? It seems that this is a less common issue discussed on forums. Maybe I'm missing these posts. My DH has poor sperm morphology (1%) and I have yet to chat with anyone dealing with a similar issue. I'm having questions about doing IVF (with ICSI) in this case and would like to share information/thoughts with someone who is considering or already completed IVF using ICSI, particularly if morphology was the problem. Anyone relate???
Avatar n tn I learned that some weman experienced elevated blood pressure and blood clots while on Arimidex. And Arimidex is known to cause high blood pressure and blood clots. How do know for sure that Arimidex is the cause of my high blood pressure?
486867 tn?1307139011 We have male infertility issues. The RE is going to put me on Clomid and do the trigger shot. So, A few months ago DH was put on Clomid to try and help increase his SA. It actually made his SA worse. Our RE said that he believes DH's SA will go back to normal quickly once his hormone levels get back to normal. I am just so nervous that his SA isn't back to normal and were just going to waste money doing an IUI.

Avatar f tn Hello! yes a lot of us have used it on here, and its worked! i never used clomid though - they did my lap and i was covered in endo : ( ... so femara is particularly good for endo patients.. i produced one or two follicles each time (but i was on the low dose - 2.
Avatar n tn ) I also now occasionally consult a holistic MD (referred by my oncologist) for nutritional advice. I am thinking of adding a supplement with the arimidex (broccoli seed extract - a natural aromatase inhibitor) and monitoring estradiol/estrone with blood tests after starting the supplement. If there were a negative interaction between the arimidex and the broccoli seed extract, how accurate would the blood test's estrogen results be?
Avatar f tn There are always options! We very often use IUI for low sperm count and also for poor motility male factor. There are also potentially some treatments that could improve the count and motility. ( I have seen clomid used in men too!). It depends upon finances and your time frame. If you want to have a baby ASAP and money is no object, then your best bet is IVF with ICSI (intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection).
Avatar n tn My case is very similar to yours,my bone density is not very good either.I've been taking arimidex for almost a year now and so far, I've been tolerating it pretty well . For my bones I take Calcium+vitamin D, and once weekly Novo Alendronate which is the equivalent of what you are taking now.
