Male Infertility Tests
Male-factor infertility occurs in about 40 percent of couples in Raleigh, Durham, Apex, Cary, Chapel Hill, Fayetteville, South Boston, VA, Danville, VA and the United States who are unable to achieve a pregnancy. Severe male-factor infertility accounts for 25 percent of infertility. Less than 10 percent of male infertility can be successfully treated with surgical or medical therapies, but testing for sperm morphology and sperm motility will give a good starting point for further testing.
For those that cannot be treated by surgery or medical therapies, there are some other options for couples desiring pregnancy.
Some will be helped by superovulation with drugs such as Pergonal®, Metrodin®, and Humegon®, along with intrauterine insemination (IUI). Others might benefit from standard in vitro fertilization (IVF).
For those who are unsuccessful with these therapies, there is now another promising therapy called intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
Helping patients from Raleigh, Durham, Apex, Cary, Chapel Hill, Fayetteville, South Boston, VA, Danville, VA and nationwide realize their dream of having a family.
