Dear XXXX

Greetings from health care magic!!! I am Dr Thakker and shall be answering your question.

I would like to know the name of the anti hypertensive medicine that you are taking.

Medications used to control high blood pressure, do not usually affect the sperm count. This is a mental block for you and you need to be rest assured.

Please get back to me with the name of your medication.



I hope this helps you out. If you have any more questions, please do not hesitate to write back to me.

Yours sincerely,
Dr Thakker.

Dear XXXX

Nebicard is nebivolol and it does not affect sperm count. Paxidep is paroxetine an anti anxiety and anti depressant drug. It causes delayed ejaculation but no effect on sperm count. So you need not worry and can continue the medications without affecting your fertility.

I hope this helps you out. If you have any more questions, please do not hesitate to write back to me.

Yours sincerely,
Dr Thakker.
