She
had three failed IVF attempts at two different IVF clinics in Lagos. In many of
the IVF trials, she said, they failed because no eggs were found. On one
occasion, they found eggs but the result was still not positive. A donor egg
alternative was recommended for her, but she rejected this because she was very
uncomfortable with the idea.
On
examination, she weighed 82.2kg, and had normal blood pressure. She works in an
oil company. And though she works in the office, she takes occasional trips to
the field in the Niger-Delta region.
She
went through our normal IVF programme, which included ovarian and sperm
improvement regimes. She was given this because she was told that if she
had problem with egg production some few years back, now at 37 it must be a bit
more difficult.
Luckily,
during egg recovery procedure on January 27, 2012, two eggs were retrieved and
one embryo eight-cell Grade A was transferred on January 30th.This attempt was
also unsuccessful by her pregnancy test.
We
conducted a failure analysis protocol on her case. A number of recommendations
were highlighted for her. The most significant one was that if she did not want
a donor egg, then her only possible option was to go for a 10-day Mayr therapy
to detoxify. Thereafter, the chances of having eggs may be improved. She was
counselled that the Mayr therapy practice at the Martlife Detox Clinic, which
was about to open then, was known to have helped many women conceive after the
therapy. The babies are called Mayr babies.
She
accepted to go for the therapy. She prayed hard that this therapy should work
for her so she would not need donor egg for her IVF. That was where the Asyra
test (a bio-energetic scan of the body systems) showed that she had several
environmental toxins in her that had weakened her reproductive system. A 10-day
therapy plan was arranged for her and her husband in June 2012.
The
plan included daily abdominal treatments, Scenar treatment, daily foot
detoxification, lymphatic massages, colon irrigation, body hydrotherapy baths,
the physiotherm, and several other Mayr protocols. She also had a consultation
with Mayr nutritionist who shed more light on her food intolerances. She also
went through a lifestyle modification seminar where she learned how to maintain
a healthier, toxin-free lifestyle beyond her stay at clinic.
She
was discharged and then asked to return to Medical Art Center for a repeat IVF
cycle. Mrs. Y.M. called us in August to inform us that she is now pregnant and
was very surprised it happened naturally! She said the detoxification worked
very well. She delivered a baby boy in February 2013 at the age of 39. The
family had a celebration for their baby and and at Mrs. Y.M’s 40th birthday
recently, family and friends were so thankful that we could establish the
modern Mayr therapy here in Nigeria. They wish many more people would get to
know of the treatment sooner than later.
This
case has underscored two important facts. One is that there are toxins in our
environment and in our work place, especially in such occupations like the oil
and gas industry, the paint industry, as well as in the foods such as the stock
fish, and large fish like mackerel. All these constitute serious health hazards
to us, especially hindering or reducing our reproductive efficiency. Some, at a
later date after consumption, can even be carcinogenic.
The
second fact is that detoxification can be very helpful in reversing some of the
possible damages. I also need to stress that such process must be carefully
applied to get rid of identified toxins and individually customised by experts
trained to do so in reputable centres.
