View allI'm really worried because my wife recently went through an IVF procedure at a fertility center in Chennai after we tried the IUI process 9 times due to my low sperm count but had no success. I've heard that IVF can sometimes fail, and I'm concerned about whether going through this process multiple times could affect my wife's health. Can you help me understand why IVF might not work and if repeated attempts could cause health issues for her?
failure will be there in IVF as they don't literally inject sperm in to egg , and every procedure will have its own risk , but you need to seek the the reason behind last failure

Is it okay to take Sinarest while I'm on Inderal 40mg? I've been dealing with Graves' disease and was on Neo Mercazole 5mg with Inderal for months, but they recently stopped the Neo Mercazole. I'm continuing with the Inderal, and now I've got this blocked nose and watery eyes because of my sinus. Could you let me know if adding Sinarest would be alright?
Taking Sinarest, which contains paracetamol, phenylephrine, and chlorpheniramine, along with Inderal 40mg can potentially increase the blood pressure-lowering effects of Inderal. This combination may also increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. It is important to consult your doctor before taking Sinarest while on Inderal 40mg. Your doctor may suggest alternative medications for your sinus symptoms that do not interact with your current medication regimen.
