Common Questions and Answers about Humira and male fertility

humira

Avatar m tn statistically 1 out of every 2-3 of us has hsv1 and 1 out of every 4-5 has hsv2 - a lot of folks who take humira, are already going to have herpes whether they know it or not! Of course you also can contract herpes simplex, either orally or genitally, while taking humira too. It also can cause shingles to occur - you'd have to have had chicken pox in the past before starting humira in order to have a shingles reactivation.
Avatar m tn My gastro is going to start me on Humira and my question is, does Humira aid with digestion and stop the diarrhea. Thanks!
Avatar f tn I changed to Humira recently and was wondering if anybody has had success with humira who has ankylosing spondylitis. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Avatar m tn I asked if it was ok to take with my HUMIRA and prednisone and was told it was fine. I was injected with the vaccine and became ill within 24 hours and my eyes became seriously inflamed. I sought medical care and saw a Opthamologist who diagnosed Iritis and Uveitis. Six months later my vision has deteriorated and I have considerable floaters. I have been referred to a major medical school, and Eye Institute.
Avatar n tn I have RA and use Humira/methotrexate. How long do I have to be off Humira to get a yellow fever (and/or tyhphoid) vaccine? How long to I have to stay off Humira after the vaccine?
Avatar n tn I have injected humira 2 weeks ago and after 3 days developed a itch and cant sleep. will it subside?
Avatar f tn 13 years ago I was diagnosed with genital herpes which I contracted from my now ex. I married 8 years ago to a good man with a bad case of Psoriasis. About 6 months ago he was diagnosed with Psoriatic arthritis after having his hands and body start crippling his abailities in daily living, and began taking Humira as treatment. Recently he has decided that we can no longer be intimate and we need to separate.
Avatar f tn There are enough other sites and posts of the same complaint and also in the first 6 months on Humira. It was about my 3rd injection I think when I started having tooth pain in my upper front teeth. Within a couple of days, my bottom front teeth stated hurting. I skipped a week of Humira under Dr advice incase I was fighting a sinus infection. Symptoms got better. Then I started back on my Humira last night and my teeth are killing me again.
Avatar m tn Does Amocicilin affect male fertility? My wife and I have been separated (because of work) and have only few chances to conceive our second child. One of those rare opportunities is here and at the same time this drug has been prescribed for me...
Avatar m tn Hello. I am a 24 year old male. My wife and I conceived and recently lost the baby at 10 weeks. Doctors advised she had a blighted ovum. I am concerned about my fertility as a male. If I had fertility issues, would she have gotten pregnant in the first place? Does a blighted ovum mean that I could have underlying fertility issues? If I could get answers, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you very much! Also, side not.
Avatar f tn I have been treated for rheumatoid arthritis with Humira for 7 months including a combination of Humira and methotrexate for the past 2 months. I also take 5mg of prednisone, and 6 Azulfadine tablets each day. I was taking Humira once every fourteen days and I am on 15mg of methotrexate a week. About a month ago, I started experiencing numbness in my toes and feet. I mentioned it to my rheumatologist but she wasn't concerned and simply told me it wasn't rheumatoid arthritis.
Avatar m tn I am 22 white circumcised male, also Crhons patient on Humira (at that point was 1 month off Humira) Does that increas my chances of hiv? usually my imune works fine amd i barely catch anything 2. If she was totally dry, does that mean that there were less potential infected fluids? 3. What keeps me a litle better is that many people insist that cuba has one of the smallest percentages of aids in the world, and the majority of the hiv + are males. Could you confirm? 4.
Avatar f tn It took 3 rounds of ivf to finally get it right and they modified the protocal to include humira and intralipids. When i got my positive, yay, on the 3rd time, the urine hcg was positive. I think it depends on the accuracy of the test. I used first response. Most upt detect 50mui of hcg in urine the first response 25. When i did serum hcg it was around 1700. I hope you dont give up, and your center tries to find a protocal thats effective for you! Hope this helps.
Avatar f tn everything seems to be working just fine but this has left me a little unsure. walgreens has a male fertility checker that measures sperm count would this be good enough to feel that I'm fertile still?thank you.
Avatar m tn On doctor suspects that because I have not taken Humira injection for about a month that it might have played a role in this mystery, Has anyone had anything similar to this or have insight on success and failures from Humira and Remicade, I really appreciate any and all responses and insight
Avatar m tn At first Humira worked completely, but for the last 3 month I now have got again explosive Diarrhoea and bleeding. I spent a minimum of 10 times running to the toilet a day, and get anxious going out and that causes stress and then more flare ups. I had a SeHCAT Scan for suspected bile acid malabsorption which I have not got and is not my cause for my Diarrhoea. I also take 60mg and 16mg Loperamide a day but Diarrhoea will not stop, only with Prednisolone Steroids.
Avatar m tn s not lifestyle related, and not related to any current health conditions - there are treatments that men can seek to correct fertility problems - and allowing a DR to take a variety of tests to help guide and measure your fertility is 100% okay and having that direction will be beneficial.

Avatar m tn Also, can I expect, with a diligent change in diet and vitamin consumption, as well as completely refraining from smoking and drinking, that my sperm quality will improve? If so how much? And do you have any ideas as to what vitamins might be beneficial to sperm quality? Thank you.
Avatar f tn Have any one used the male fertility test at home?? Anf if so do they really work??

Avatar f tn Anyone taking humira and feel like they are sick coming down with a cold for a week after injection? Not a full blown cold but the start of one. I feel like this always and this is my 3rd dosage ( counting the starter kit), so I'm new to humira. I've noticed if I'm stressed, I'll even get a sore throat. I know humira suppresses your immune system but are you supposed to feel like you're coming down with something every injection or will this go away with time?
Avatar f tn I was on Imuran as well as Humira and I never got sick, even after being around people who were. Maybe I was just lucky. Keep hand sanitizer with you at all times. Remember not to touch your face as well, and get lots of rest!
158939 tn?1274915197 are you on any other medications? i was also on arava when i started the humira and got a terrible rash on my hands and feet. i stopped the arava, took cholestyramine to get it out of my system. rash went away. still taking humira. no more rash, so that's good, but i'm not sure where these twitches are coming from. they started about three weeks ago. i'm so sorry you've been having this reaction. sounds like you've had quite a history. i wish you the best. hang in there.
