No I saw it at the chemist the other day and wondered how effective it was. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

My DH is trying it - he's only been using it for 1˝ months so far though (I think it's meant to take about 3 months to make a difference). Crossing fingers for good results! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  <

My DH has been taking this for three months for help with motility issues. We probably hadn't been taking it for long enough for it to help with last pregnancy which ended in m/c. So will let you all know whether it is effective as we are in the middle of a clomid cycle.
Although we have come to the conclusion that dh's motility issues are random as sometimes we get great semen analysis results and sometimes when he has say a cold, is a bit run down or stressed/tired then the results are not so great. So looking after his health helps with his sperm production. We thought that Menevit couldn't hurt as at least he would be getting all the vitamins he needs for good sperm production, and its all in one pill. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Hubby is going to start taking it too.
www.pharmacydirect.co.nz You can get it from here a little cheaper than at the chemist. We are going to do a SA first and then do another one after 3mths to see what difference it has made. ------------- Tania & Les Nicholas 18 Vaughn 15 Lisa 10 Tara 5yrs Gestational Surrogate for couple in Whakatane Egg collection week of 4th Oct Embryo transfer week of 11th Oct |

My DH has been taking it for nearly 2 months so early days. I have noticed that some pharmacies are a real rip off, have only been buying 30 at a time and paying about $35, but seen it for as much as $49

my DH has been taking it for the last 1 1/2 mnths. We dont have swimmer issues but thought it couldnt do any harm.
I dont know if it is doing anything to his stats but he is certainly feeling better and much more willing to BD this month, a bit more energy 
We bought the big bottle and it was about $90. -------------

Just thought that I would mention an unusual reason for low motility or abnormal sperm is laptop use (used specifically on the lap) .... it causes high temperatures around the groin area and affects the swimmers ............... |

I agree, definitely one to avoid Shezzey, if only DH would get out of the habit! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow"> http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow"> <
