Breastfeeding is a crucial period in the life of a woman. Restrictions on the use of drugs in this time, sometimes even more than during pregnancy, as if the medicine is absorbed into the woman's blood, it usually allocated with human milk, and thus may have some effect on the infant.

The components of a Polizhinaks

Polizhinaks is a combination drug for the local treatment of gynecological infectious and inflammatory diseases, and is available in vaginal capsules. In order to suppress the livelihoods of most of the flora that can cause diseases such manufacturer (French pharmaceutical company Laboratory Innotech Internacional) introduced in the drug three antibiotics, two of which suppress the growth of bacterial flora (neomycin and polymyxin B), and one - a fungal (Nystatin) .

Due to the presence of a special adjuvant active substances are well distributed over the surface of the vaginal mucosa, penetrating into all the folds. Formulation Polizhinaks also contributes to the improvement of metabolic processes in the mucous membranes of the vulva, vagina and cervix.

When used properly, the components of the drug Polizhinaks hardly get into the blood and do not have a woman's body on systemic exposure. But breastfeeding sometimes getting into the mother's blood, even a small amount of the drug substance may be relevant if it is excreted in breast milk.

How to act on the child's individual components Polizhinaks

Neomycin - an antibiotic of the aminoglycoside, which is able to actively suppress the livelihoods of many Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens. Despite this activity, it is used less and less in and intramuscular, as it has a strong toxic to the kidneys and the hearing aid. Locally neomycin consisting Polygynax slightly absorbed into the bloodstream and has no systemic effects on the mother's body, but it can get into breast milk and have some (of course, minor) a toxic effect on the child.

Polymyxin B is an antibiotic Antibiotics - whether they will help you in the foreseeable future?   from the group of polymyxins, it inhibits the ability to live mainly Gram-negative microflora and blends with neomycin. It is even less able to be absorbed into the blood than neomycin, but unfortunately, it also has a toxic effect on the kidneys and the hearing aid that is able to enhance similar effect of neomycin.

Nystatin - is an antifungal antibiotic that inhibits the ability to live yeast fungi genus Candida, causing candidiasis of external genitals (thrush). This medication is not allowed to use during pregnancy and nursing Breastfeeding - a personal choice   feeding.

Thus, all three active components capable Polygynax even with a slight contact with the mother's blood and breast milk have a negative influence on the child's body.

A breast milk a mother tries to express that did not stop breastfeeding. Naturally, decant as much milk as the baby is able to suck, it does not, but even if the milk after the treatment will be less than before, anyway, the child gradually begins to suck more milk, and it will arrive. The main thing in this situation, do not panic - just stress How to beat stress? Create an oasis   capable of adversely affect lactation.

The phenomenon of male factor infertility is a manifestation of different pathological conditions. In the structure of infertile marriages incidence of infertility in men reaches 30 to 50%, while the causes of infertility in men varied. If medical help has addressed the couple for infertility, it is better to start with a survey of male survey to determine the presence of infertility and identify its causes.

Factors male infertility

All possible causes of infertility in men should be classified in terms of the nature of the disease process and its localization. Abnormalities in the reproductive system may have a genetic, endocrine, inflammatory nature and are located at different levels (pituitary gland, testes, vas the way).

According to the existing classification of isolated clinical types of male infertility:

• form of infertility due to disorders of the secretory function of sexual glands, it is not enough. This form is called secretory, while it may be congenital and acquired character
• infertility, which develops as a result of congenital or acquired pathology of the sexual sphere men when there is violation of the vas waterway transport sperm. This infertility was called eksretornogo
• with a combination of obstructive and secretory failure, immunological, inflammatory talk about combined forms of infertility
• infertility due to the presence of immunological factors
• in the event of psychosexual disorders psychosexual formed infertility
• If the cause of infertility The causes of infertility - heredity and lifestyle   I can not find a form called the unexplained or idiopathic. Its share amounts to some estimates up to 20%. Rate male fertility is not of great complexity, but to find out exactly the reasons that led to infertility is very difficult

Given the high incidence of male infertility, in the survey requires each patient a complex of diagnostic measures for specially designed protocol. This allows fast enough to identify the possible cause of the disease and the diagnosis. In 31% of clinical cases, one can observe a combination of two or more causative factors.

Infectious factors and hormonal disorders in infertility in men

The problem of infectious diseases is given an important place in the structure of the causes of infertility. The focus is on those infections that are transmitted sexually (STIs). The frequency of infection spreading genital mutilation as a factor in male infertility, according to some estimates up to 22%. It is mandatory to survey men on the entire complex, including tract infections, to exclude the presence of infectious agents.

Among the possible causes of infertility in men secrete endocrine disorders. Changes in hormone secretion can occur at various levels of the reproductive system, such as the hypothalamus, pituitary and other endocrine glands. Tumours in the pituitary gland (adenoma), pathological effects of some drugs cause excessive production of the hormone prolactin Prolactin - effect on the body is not fully known   (hyperprolactinaemia), which also leads to the development of the male infertility. It may be acquired by a defect in the secretion of hormones due to the central pathological effects of radiation exposure to the traumatic factor or tumor formation.
