Fertility Screening
For the modern, well-informed man who understands that prevention is the best treatment and is committed to learning about and managing his fertility.
What is Included
Spermiogram
We assess key semen parameters — such as sperm count, motility, and morphology — through microscopic observation, rather than relying on automatic analyzers. These parameters offer insight into the sperm’s potential fertilizing capability, which is crucial for conception.
Semen Cultures
We examine whether there is any pathogenic microorganism present. The existence of microbes requires immediate treatment because if left untreated for a long period, they can adversely affect achieving pregnancy or they can be transmitted to the partner, leading to further complications.
Measurement of sperm oxidation-reduction potential
Using the MiOXSYS system, which is the only one that calculates the total oxidative-reductive potential (sORP), we quickly and effectively evaluate whether sperm is in an oxidative or reductive stress state, allowing for immediate application of appropriate treatment or adjustment. Up to 80% of cases of male infertility are related to oxidative stress. Treatment involves the correct antioxidant therapy at the appropriate dosage.
DNA Fragmentation Index (DFI)
The percentage of spermatozoa with damaged DNA is determined using the TUNEL method, which is the most reliable technique for this purpose. These spermatozoa have undergone cell death processes and either may not be able to fertilize the egg, or if fertilization occurs, the embryo may fail to implant or lead to miscarriage. Increased levels of fragmented DNA will negatively affect the chance of achieving pregnancy naturally.
Personalized Advice
Based on the results, we provide personalized advice for improving and/or maintaining your reproductive health.
