Emmy thank you very much for your reply- much much appreciated. As i am in the UK My sprm 50% is motile, but rest isnt. As i am in the UK i dont think i can get MENEVITE her. I thnik it is only in the Ausy market. If i send you $70 + shipping cost , would you be kind enoough to post some to me please..
I'm sure there are equivalent products available in the UK to Australia. Customs might be bit funny about pills and potions being sent overseas. If you went to a chemist to discuss it with them I'm sure they would be able to help. You need to be aware that certain vitamins etc react with other medicines so it's important to discuss your individual needs with a professional.
When your doctor told you you had non-motile sperm he/she should have discussed in more detail with you could do if anything to improve this. I'd be giving the doctor another call!
I could do that for you but it would probably be easier for you to order it online and get them to post it out. Ill try find an Australia Chemist outlet where you can buy it online and have it posted out to the UK direct from the shop. Ill go try find a place that sells it and add the link.
Oh yeah I dont know how you would go with customs. I can tell you all the ingredience in the menevite so you can find a similar product in the UK.
I agree with Lenny re seeing the Dr again.
50% motile is still ok to achieve pregnancy to my knowledge if the abnormal forms are not a high percentage and the count is ok. My husbands was 21% normal forms so 79% abnormal and 45% motility (30% moving forward quickly, 15% forward slow the rest not moving (dead or staying in the one spot) I think the menevite helps more with the motility then the count itself but I am not 100% sure. Some of the other girls and theire DH might know more.
Although I think the menevite (or something similar) is a good start and will most likely improve your sperm quality it is not guaranteed success (if only it was I'd be very happy right now) .
There is a site I also use baby and bump. I am not sure if its a UK site or not but there seems to be alot of people on it from the UK. Maybe if you ask a question on it they will be able to tell you a product local to you that is the same or similar to what menevite is.
I just saw your post and thought that I might be able to help... My husband and I are in a similar situation (I was checked out by a Fertility Specialist and was ok) wheras my husband came back with a low count (2million) with poor morphology and motility (motility was at 50% with our worst reading at 45%).
We have recently undergone IVF and have had success with our 3rd egg transfer. On our 1st stimulated cycle we did not particularly have good results, however things picked up considerably on our second stimulated cycle due to some major lifestyle changes for both my husband and myself.
On this second cycle, my husband's motility went up from 50% to 75% which I believe gave us our success (along with a bit of luck of course!).
Here is what my husband did:
Had a menevite a day
Stopped drinking any caffeine related drinks
No alcohol (this was the hardest!)
Stopped eating refined sugars (no cakes, pies etc - plus checked food labels for sugar content as you would be surprised at the amount of sugar in some so called 'healthy products')
No take out like McDonalds and KFC
Drank more water
Drank a glass of orange juice a day
More fruit and vege
Ate a handful of pumpkin seeds a day (very good for sperm)
Went to acupuncture once a week
