If you and your partner are having trouble falling pregnant, one of the first tests you doctor will request for is a semen analysis. Semen analysis, also known as a sperm count test, is a diagnostic procedure used to evaluate the health and fertility potential of a man's semen. This test provides valuable insights into the quantity, quality, and overall viability of sperm present in the ejaculate.
This test assesses the quality of sperm DNA, identifying potential sperm damage that may impact fertility and the success of fertility treatments like IVF and ICSI.
Oxidative stress occurs when there's an imbalance between harmful free radicals and protective antioxidants. In male fertility, oxidative stress can harm sperm, leading to decreased fertility.
This technique is particularly beneficial for men who have difficulty producing sperm or have obstructive azoospermia, a condition where sperm is produced but cannot reach the semen due to blockages.
At our fertility clinic, we offer semen freezing services as a means to preserve fertility for individuals or couples facing various life circumstances. Semen freezing, also known as sperm cryopreservation, is a process that involves carefully collecting and preserving sperm cells at ultra-low temperatures for future use.
The presence of pathogens in semen can compromise the outcome of assisted reproductive treatment, together with the possibility of the female partner or offspring becoming infected. This is cause for concern, especially with the of HIV virus. Most males in their reproductive years, who are HIV+, have a desire to have their own genetically related offspring.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment offered at our clinic, designed to enhance the chances of conception for individuals or couples experiencing difficulties in getting pregnant. Also known as artificial insemination, IUI involves placing carefully prepared sperm directly into the uterus during the woman's fertile window, optimizing the chances of sperm reaching and fertilizing the egg.
Oocyte freezing, also known as egg freezing, is a revolutionary fertility preservation technique offered at our clinic, providing individuals with the opportunity to preserve their reproductive potential for the future. Whether due to medical reasons, personal circumstances, or career goals, oocyte freezing empowers individuals to take control of their fertility journey.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) and Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) are advanced fertility treatments offered at our clinic, providing hope to individuals and couples striving to overcome infertility challenges and realise their dream of parenthood.
Genetic testing is a vital component of modern fertility care, providing valuable insights into genetic factors that may impact reproductive health and family planning. At our fertility clinic, we offer comprehensive genetic testing services to empower individuals and couples on their journey towards parenthood.
