l-arginine

Avatar f tn Getting induced on Sunday afternoon! I'll be barely 38wks, but baby has complication IUGR (intrauterine growth retardation). Anyone have/had this? I'm nervous about getting induced because my cervix isn't dilated at all so idk how long labor will be. Also, baby is only 4lbs 15oz. Keep me in your prayers please!
Avatar f tn The other concern is, in the face of heart block, hydrocephalus, and intrauterine growth retardation, whether there is an associated genetic syndrome causing this.

Avatar n tn Lupron is an injectable GnRH analog it decreases FSH and LH levels. It is used in Assisted Reproduction techniques like before an intrauterine insemination or in vitro fertilization. Sperm motility may be decreased due to tobacco intake, smoking, low intake of zinc etc.In such cases intrauterine insemination may help. Your doctor may be planning assisted reproduction technology for you. Discuss all your concerns with your treating doctor. Do write to us again if you have more queries.
Avatar n tn If you were overweight at the time you conceived, you are not expected to gain as much in your second trimester as a woman who started her pregnancy at a healthy weight. Inadequate weight gain can lead to intrauterine growth retardation. If there is still no weight gain it can be a signal for preeclampsia, or pregnancy-induced hypertension. Other causes can include a lack of amniotic fluid or gestational diabetes. Ensure sufficient intake of proteins and vitamins.
Avatar n tn I have been looking into vitamins that will cause HGH levels to increase and for myself to grow a few inches taller and I have found people recommending pills that combine Arginine and Ornithine. I have found one product labeled L-Arginine-Ornithine. Each two (2) capsules provide: L-Arginine (1000 mg.), L-Ornithine (500 mg.) and Chromium Picolinate (6.2 mcg.). Do you think this will make me grow taller?
Avatar m tn It was only after I had bought these that I read on multiple websites that excess (i.e. more than usual) L-Arginine in your diet can mean more frequent herpes outbreaks and of course these supplements both contain L-Arginine. I don't want to waste the supplements but I don't want to risk having an outbreak because of them. Does anyone know if L-arginine can lead to more frequent outbreaks (apparently it promotes the replication of the virus and thus leads to an outbreak)?
301640 tn?1302652334 The condition may sometimes cause developmental delay of motor skills and speech and in a few children mental retardation. Diagnostic tests that may be performed to confirm the diagnosis of microcephaly and identify abnormalities in the brain include head circumference measurement, x-ray, CT scan and MRI, blood and urine tests. You should consult a pediatrician for a complete examination to diagnose and manage the condition.
Avatar f tn My mom had intrauterine growth retardation with my little sister. Her body stopped supplying food to the baby. And they kept pushing her due date back. If my mom had gone by the doctors she would have been pregnant for an entire year BC my sister was so small. She was born a month late by being induced and she was only 4lbs 6 oz.

Avatar f tn I have a question from the opposite angle.. I had been told l- arginine would be of help releasing nitric oxide in the blood to help with male erection/orgasm ..however, that arginine shouldn't be taken by those with hsv1/2 because it can provoke an outbreak. Can you debunk this ? I would love to take arginine if it can help at all !
Avatar n tn L-Arginine and L-Citrulline are quite effective in restoring sexual ability in a certain universe of patients, specifically those with diabetic neuropathy. You need to take at least 2-3 grams of L-Arginine for an effect. Purchase it in quantitities at health food stores.
Avatar m tn Are there are any potential contra indications in that Viagra should not be taken by a person who takes L-Arginine? If so, is the contraindication just for that day? In other words, would I be safe if I did not take L-Arginine on the day I took Viagra? Or, do I have to stop taking L-Arginine completely if I am going to occasionally take Viagra (i.e. take Viagra once a week)? Thank you for your response.
Avatar m tn Large amounts of arginine in animals can both promote10 and interfere with cancer growth.11 In preliminary research, high intake (30 grams per day) of arginine has increased cancer cell growth in humans.12 On the other hand, in people with cancer, arginine has been found to stimulate the immune system.13 At this time it remains unclear whether arginine is dangerous or helpful for people with cancer. Arginine works with ornithine in the synthesis of growth hormone" www.bodyandfitness.
Avatar n tn Excellent for diabetic neuropathy as well. Many people take it four or five times per day in small doses. Purchase the L-Arginine in quantity (at health food stores), rather than in capsules and you will save a lot of money. Of course you should have a home meter and check your blood pressure before and after starting with this substance, just to know the effect.
Avatar n tn Although some studies suggest that L-arginine may benefit certain health conditions, other research shows that L-arginine may have harmful effects on some individuals. A large body of data suggests that NO actually promotes tumor progression. L Citrulline, like arginine, it can convert into nitric oxide NO. Be careful!!
Avatar m tn well, IUGR is Intrauterine Growth Restriction......Intrauterine growth restriction refers to the poor growth of a baby while in the womb. Specifically, it refers to a fetus whose weight is below the 10th percentile for its gestational age. Symptoms Currently pregnant with a feeling that the baby is not as big as it should be Uterine fundal height less than expected for gestational age Treatment IUGR increases the risk for intrauterine death.
