Several factors to consider. Any thoughts of why STD's are high in the Caribbean culture?

| FALLING sperm count in Trinidadian males is one of the major factors preventing couples from having children. Consultant gynaecologist and head clinician at the Barbados Fertility Centre, Dr Juliet Skinner, disclosed this in an interview yesterday on the eve of a seminar on infertility. She said the underlying causes for the falling sperm count in Trinidad and in men in other Caribbean territories were perhaps the environment of tropical heat, because heat was not a good for sperm production and the high rate of sexually transmitted diseases. "At the end of the day, the prevalence of STDs are high in the Caribbean culture and STDs unfortunately linked with infertility in both the male and the female," Skinner said. She identified other factors that increased infertility in couples as fibroids in women and the delaying of the age of conception in women. "Age is really matters in conception," Skinner said. If a couple have being trying to have children for two years without success then they should go and see a doctor, if they are over 35 and have been trying for six months, without success, then they need to seek help as well, she added. Skinner, under the Barbados Fertility Centre, will host the free patient awareness seminar from 9.30 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. today at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Port of Spain. Its aim is to educate the public on the many causes of infertility in couples and various methods of conception, including In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF), popularly known as the "test tube method". More than 200 Trinidadian couples have already registered for the seminar and many more are expected to show up this morning, Skinner said. .. |
