Sperm Aneuploidy Test
What is the Sperm Aneuploidy Test?
The Sperm Aneuploidy Test is a specialized analysis designed to assess the chromosomal integrity of sperm cells, which is crucial in evaluating male infertility.
This test examines sperm for abnormal chromosome numbers (aneuploidy), a significant factor in infertility, recurrent miscarriages, and certain birth defects.
Why is the Test Required?
It is essential for identifying chromosomal abnormalities in sperm, which can lead to issues like miscarriages or congenital disabilities in offspring.
Who Should Undergo This Test?
Recommended for men with unexplained infertility, a history of recurrent miscarriages in their partner, or previous offspring with chromosomal abnormalities.
Interpreting the Results
The results reveal the proportion of sperm with abnormal chromosome numbers, providing insight into potential genetic causes of infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss.
Utility for Patients with Male Infertility
Understanding sperm chromosomal makeup helps tailor fertility treatments, like IVF, and informs couples about the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in offspring. This test plays a vital role in comprehensive male fertility evaluation and treatment planning, offering crucial information for couples facing infertility challenges.
After analysis of the results( according to WHO standards) the treating doctors determine whether Assisted Reproductive Technology will be needed for further fertility treatment . Further tests may be advised to gauge the extent of infertility, such as genetic tests, hormone tests, blood and urine analysis, sperm function tests, and anti-sperm antibody tests.
Semen analysis guides childless couples toward appropriate infertility treatment options.
