  2. Female infertility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_infertility

    Many women have reported finding treatment for infertility stressful and a cause of relationship difficulties with their partners. The fear of failure was the most important barrier to treatment. Females, in studied cases, typically experience more adverse effects of infertility and treatments than do males.

  3. Infertility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infertility

    In both men and women, ASA production are directed against surface antigens on sperm, which can interfere with sperm motility and transport through the female reproductive tract, inhibiting capacitation and acrosome reaction, impaired fertilization, influence on the implantation process, and impaired growth and development of the embryo. The ...

  4. Sperm motility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sperm_motility

    Sperm motility is dependent on several metabolic pathways and regulatory mechanisms. The axonemal bend movement is based on the active sliding of axonemal doublet microtubules by the molecular motor dynein, which is divided into an outer and an inner arm. Outer and inner arm plays different roles in the production and regulation of flagellar motility: the outer arm increase the bea

  5. Fertility medication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fertility_medication

    There is evidence suggesting a significant association between vitamin D serum concentrations and the quality of sperm in men, characterized by the sperm's motility and progress motility. [23] Because the quality of men's sperm is influenced by genetics, results should be interpreted cautiously.

  6. Hypoprolactinemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoprolactinemia

    Hypoprolactinemia is associated with ovarian dysfunction in women, [3] [4] and, in men, metabolic syndrome, [5] anxiety symptoms, [5] arteriogenic erectile dysfunction, [6] premature ejaculation, [5] oligozoospermia (low concentration of sperm in semen), asthenospermia (reduced sperm motility), hypofunction of seminal vesicles, and hypoandrogenism. [7]

  7. Antisperm antibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisperm_antibodies

    In both men and women, ASA production are directed against surface antigens on sperm, which can interfere with sperm motility and transport through the female reproductive tract, inhibiting capacitation and acrosome reaction, impaired fertilization, influence on the implantation process, and impaired growth and development of the embryo. [1] [9]

  8. Repeated implantation failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeated_implantation_failure

    Women with RIF should be advised to abstain from both alcohol and smoking, and male partners may also consider cessation of smoking due to effects associated with weaker sperm counts and damage to sperm DNA and motility. [1] An ideal BMI target for women with RIF is between 19 and 29; [1] obese women may consider structured weight-loss ...

  9. Fertility testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fertility_testing

    Semen can be tested for sperm count, sperm motility, sperm morphology, pH, volume, fructose content, and acrosome activity. Checks are also made to identify undescended testicles and retrograde ejaculation, along with medical history, such as cancer treatment, radiation, drug use, etc.
