"Why Women With Cryptic Pregnancy Shouldn't Resign Themselves To Fate"- Adebayo

Dr. Adeyinka Adebayo was in the news a couple of years ago when he spoke about the existence of cryptic pregnancy and even offered to treat three women across Nigeria with cases of cryptic pregnancy for free.


Two patients have since confirmed that Dr. Adebayo, who has been in the trado-medical practice for 17 years has treated them for infertility and cryptic pregnancy. The two patients whose identities are protected spoke on the treatment and result achieved.
PATIENT A: I only want to be referred to as Mr Joseph. It true that Dr Adebayo treated my wife and God answered our prayer. My wife has not been to conceive for the past 9 years and we met Dr Adebayo last year. He began treating my wife last year and to the glory of God my wife is now pregnant. I can be reached on takltojoseph@gmail.com

PATIENT B: I don’t want to mention my name but I can confirm that Dr Adebayo has treated my wife of cryptic pregnancy. My name has been exhibiting symptoms of a pregnant woman for some time now and tests could not confirm she is pregnant. She went to do scan and it revealed that she was not pregnant. Somebody introduced Dr Adebayo to us last year and he began to treat her. I can tell you today that tests and scan have revealed my wife is pregnant. I thank God and Dr Adebayo.

Shedding light on the condition, Adebayo said "cryptic pregnancy is a condition where there is little or no detectable HCG in the mother's system. The foetus may go undetected by mother and doctors, until delivery. Some of these women do not know that they are even pregnant and some of them do".
On why it is not easily detected, he explained that "among pegnant women, one in 450 doesn’t know her status until week 20 or later, and one in 2,500 is oblivious until she actually goes into labour".
According to him, "signs may vary but the general signs of cryptic pregnancy are negative urine and blood pregnancy test, continued period bleeding, typical pregnancy symptoms, and at times, negative ultrasounds. Even with these signs, the woman continues to experience pregnancy symptoms including the sensation of foetal movement. Most women do not realize that they are pregnant due to negative tests, continued periods, little or no symptoms and the fact that they believe their doctors, when they are told they are not pregnant. Many of these women were told they could not have children, they are on birth control or even have had their tubes tied".
When asked how he helps delivers babies in such an abnormal situation, he said
"you see, because some of these women with cryptic pregnancies do not believe that they are pregnant and because many doctors will tell them that they are not; they resign to fate. In actual sense, those who are very observant among them will notice changes in their bodies are telling them. Because of this, they are faced with going through an entire pregnancy without prenatal care, without medical confirmation of the pregnancy, without support from friends and family.
What we do is to first of all determine if the pregnancy is due because it takes between 17 months or even years for such baby to be delivered. After we have determined if the pregnancy is due, we then place the woman on our herbal medicine which will induce labour by opening up the womb and the woman delivers safely.
In many cases, the babies are small but will develop with time".
