Abstract

Semen analysis of 1000 samples was evaluated to ascertain the male factor involvement in the infertility challenge. The Sperm Quality Analizer Visual (SQA-V) - a CASA protocol was used. This technology generates comprehensive semen analysis result in just 75 seconds. Of the 1000 samples analyzed, only 169 (16.9%) had all normal parameters; while the remaining 831 (83.1%) had abnormal parameters detected from them. Of 606 samples, 357 (58.9%) were Asthenozoospermia; 307 (50.7%) were Necrozoospermia; 101 (16.7%) were Oligoasthenozoospermia; 487 (52.0%) of 937 samples were Oligozoospermia; 172 (17.2%) of the 1000 samples were Hypospermia; 160 (16.0%) were Normozoospermia; while only one (0.2%) of 602 samples was Teratozoospermia. Seminal analysis is assessment of generational continuity. Couples experiencing infertility challenge in their marriages are encouraged to consult with their doctors’ early enough; avail themselves the opportunity for proper medical laboratory services while still relying on the Almighty God for divine intervention.

Highlights

  • Seminal analysis evaluates certain characteristics of the male’s semen and spermatozoa contained therein

  • Due to the high rate of semen samples with abnormalities, we considered cases with moderate low sperm count

  • Per ejaculate; this was compensated by the increased volume of semen produced

Summary

Introduction

Seminal analysis evaluates certain characteristics of the male’s semen and spermatozoa contained therein. Infertility is often not seen (by the West) as being an issue outside industrialized countries [1,2]. Infertility has profound effects on individuals in developing countries, as the production of children is often highly socially valued and is vital for societal security and health networks as well as for family income generation [3]. Infertility in these societies often leads to social stigmatization and abandonment of spouses [1]. Unlike in the West, secondary infertility is more common than primary infertility, being most often the result of untreated STIs or complications from pregnancy/birth [5]
