Ryan Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:39:40 +0000 http://theadventurouswriter.com/blogbaby/?p=1034#comment-1001 My husband and I tried for over four years to conceive...cycles of Clomid, Pergonal, Metrodin, inseminations, IVF attempts; tests, exploratory surgeries, you name it. I learned the root of the problem by catching a news segment one night, and ironically the focus of the piece was about the possible development of the male pill. Turned out that 10 couples attempting IVF weren't getting embryos (like my husband and I)...I spoke with the research biologist who was interviewed for the piece, who figured out the problem, which is not widely written about or discussed. It was the men's high blood pressure medicine (calcium channel blockers, not the beta blockers), which rendered the sperm incapable of fertilizing an egg (Yet, in testing, the sperm will appear normal, except for the hamster egg test, when you learn the sperm doesn't penetrate the egg, which leads to an IVF attempt to put a hole in the egg, hoping the sperm finds its way in). I was on fertility drugs and my husband was basically on birth control! We were very lucky, and the third IVF attempt was successful (the first two didn't even produce an embryo, even with ICSI). Here's an article explaining Dr. Benoff's findings, which includes the drug maker's resistance to let the public know about the "side effect" of the blood pressure medicine: http://www.malecontraceptives.org/methods/nifedipine.php I hope this information may help some couples out there. I know the pain and heartache involved with the infertility roller coaster. I remember how depressed I was when I had to write the YEAR on my temperature chart. Best wishes...
