Surgical Sperm Retrieval and Azoospermia

  Surgical Sperm Retrieval and Azoospermia Testicular sperm aspiration (TESA) Surgical sperm retrieval and Azoospermia and Sperm harvesting is entirely different from a diagnostic testicular biopsy because, in this setting, the goal is not to identify what is happening in the testis but instead it is to find sperm. Only men with no sperm in their ejaculate  (azoospermia ) need to have sperm retrieved directly from the testis or epididymis. This may involve a simple aspiration for men who have a blockage or require much more extensive sampling of the testis for men who have a sperm production problem. As a result, there is a significant difference in the amount of time it takes, the need for anesthesia and the equipment utilized. Very few tests allow for an accurate prediction of whether or not sperm will be found in the testes of men with testicular problems. Genetic testing may give insight into the chance of finding sperm but are not absolute. The pattern of the problem of t...

Hysteroscopy and Laparsoscopy surgery

  Hysteroscopy and Laparsoscopy surgery Our panels of expert surgeons, Hysteroscopy and laparocopy surgery with extensive experience in the field have successfully performed a number of gynaecological & laparoscopy surgeries. However, we advise upon surgical options only judiciously, and as a last resort. We prioritise treatment on sheer merit and opt for surgery only when indicated and necessary. Diagnostic and Operative Hysteroscopy and laparocopy surgery A diagnostic process which determines the exact condition of the uterus (Hysteroscopy and laparocopy surgery), fallopian tubes and surrounding structures, done with the help of a telescope under general anesthesia. The telescope is inserted into the abdomen through the belly button by way of a very small cut and further inserted into the uterus through the cervix. This is good diagnostic method for no other investigative procedure (ultrasound, hysterosalpingogram) gives a clearer view than this endoscopic method. These end...

Male Infertility Treatment

Image
  What is Male Infertility? Male infertility treatment  is defined as the inability of the male to cause pregnancy in a fertile female. In humans, 40-50% of infertility is due to some problem with the male. It affects about 7% of all men and it is due some deficiency in semen quality. There are reports from All India Institute of Medical Sciences that over 12–18 million couples in India suffer from infertility every year. There are several reports suggesting that there is gradual reduction of sperm count in various countries of Europe and USA. Sperm count of a normal Indian male used to be 60 million/ml thirty years ago, it is now around 20 million/ml. Continue.........

Egg Freezing and sperm freezing

Image
  Egg Freezing-Egg Freezing and sperm freezing Egg Freezing and sperm freezing Egg freezing  is an exciting technology. Many proponents of freezing have lauded the advantages of this technology as a feminist advancement. The idea of offering this technology to healthy young women is revolutionary and empowering. Since we know that a woman’s fertility – including her ovarian reserve and egg quality – declines with age, elective  Oocyte Cryopreservation  offers one option to those wishing to conceive later.  Oocyte Cryopreservation  allows women to use their own eggs, frozen when they were young and healthy, to help them achieve a pregnancy later—when they might otherwise have a harder time finding healthy eggs. Advances in technology have made  Oocyte Cryopreservation  much more successful. A new technique called “vitrification” — where the eggs are frozen so quickly that damaging ice crystals don’t get a chance to form — has made it more likely fo...

ICSI treatments

  ICSI treatments Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a laboratory procedure carried out during IVF treatment where an individual sperm is injected directly into an egg.

  Intrauterine Insemination IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) treatments With IUI treatment, fertilisation takes place within the patients’ body rather than in the laboratory What is IUI Treatment?   IUI treatment is a form of fertility treatment that helps a higher number of better quality sperm reach the womb, increasing the chances of fertilisation. Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) simply means putting prepared sperm into the uterus. You might have heard it called artificial insemination. When might you be offered IUI treatments? IUI is recommended for people who’ve been unable to conceive a child through natural methods. The most common reasons for this are low sperm count or poor sperm mobility. If you’re a couple younger than 35, you might consider IUI after trying unsuccessfully to conceive for one year. If you’re older than 35, you might be a candidate if you’ve been trying to conceive for six months. Before undertaking IUI, you and your partner will be assessed to discov...

IVF treatment : How does work IVF ?

  IVF treatment : How does work IVF ? Within this section,  IVF treatment  can find information explaining everything about IVF, including what it is, how it works, fertility challenges it can overcome, success rates and costs. IVF treatment (in vitro fertilization) :  In natural conception, when an egg is ovulated each month, sufficient numbers of actively swimming sperm need to enter the cervix, work their way up the uterus and into the fallopian tubes. An egg must be released from the ovary and make its way down the tube to meet the sperm – the timing for all this needs to be right so that the egg and sperm can combine. Then, if the sperm successfully fertilises the egg, the dividing egg makes it way back down to the uterus to implant into the lining of the womb. A problem with any of these steps in the reproductive process may result in difficulties in becoming pregnant. There are a number of reasons why this process may not work efficiently and this is where I...
