Hi,I am Dr. Aniruddha Malpani (Infertility Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I AM 45 YEARS OLD. I WAS TAKING LYCO-Q 100 TABLETS. SPERM MOTILITY CAME TO 52% IN OCTOBER 2011. NOW I GOT IT CHECKED AGAIN IN THE LAST WEEK. BUT MOTILITY SHOWS AS 0%. WHAT IS THE REASON FOR THAT AND ALSO LYCO-Q TABLET WILL NOT GIVE PERMANENT SOLUTION TO MOTILITY PROBLEM? PLEASE ADVISE ME
Sadly medicine has not come up with such drugs which have dramatic effects on sperm count and motility. Multi vitamin with zinc combination drugs such as lyco Q are used with some improvement. It has no 100% success rate and permanent results.
I would suggest you to do some life style modifications like - -Reduce weight, do exercise. -Stop smoking and alcohol. -Avoid caffeine. -Ware loose under garments. -Healthy diet with multivitamin and zinc.
With the treatment you should repeat your semen analysis after 3 months. If same state is there then better to go for IUI. It is intrauterine deposition of sperms. Here healthy sperms are selected and placed inside the uterus. You can try 4 to 5 cycles of IUI before proceeding to IVF.
Hope I have been helpful.
Regards Dr. Ashish Verma
