Hi, my husband and I would like to fall pregnant. I have been off the contraceptive for 3 years now and no pregnancy. He is uncomfortable with giving a sperm sample as apparently a specimen is achieved by masturbation. I have tried clomid etc and possibly the problem lies with him. Do you have any recommendation? I would also like to lose weight and start duromine 30mg but afraid of what the consequences are if I fall pregnant while taking them. Any assistance will be appreciated.
Hi welcome to Chat Doctor. I have gone through your question. If you want to conceive then you both should have normal reports. If you had not done your reports, then for you, I advise ovulation profile, thyroid profile, histosalpingography HSG. For your partner semen analysis is must rule out any abnormality. As far as bromine is concern is appetite suppressant, you should take after your family physicians advise. As bromine is prescribed to very obese person whose BMI(body mass index) is 27+. For reducing weight 1 do regular exercise, walking for at least 30 mins 2. Avoid oily and fatty diet, avoid ice cream and butter, cheese. Hope I have answered your question. Would be happy to help you further. Take care.
