‘The world of reproductive science has progressed and treatment of even most severe cases of infertility might be possible’

Hindustan Times  

Dear couples, Twenty-three year old Nisha came to our clinic with a history of no periods. The world of reproductive science has progressed considerably over the years and treatment of even most severe cases of infertility, like when there are no eggs in the ovarian reserve or no sperm in the semen, is possible. There are several stages of treatment available thereafter: Intrauterine Insemination : This is normally the first treatment for cases of unexplained infertility, where a sperm sample taken from the male partner is washed and healthy sperms are injected into the uterine cavity of the female partner. Intracycloplasmic Sperm Injection : In certain cases, if the male partner’s sperm count is low or if the sperms are abnormal, they are not able to fertilize the eggs. Even in cases where there are no eggs found or if the sperm count is zero, donor IVF can be carried out making it possible to have a healthy baby.
