To choose the optimal fertility treatment and increase the likelihood of success, sperm must be diagnosed in a reliable and accurate manner.
In a given case, we examine the sperm cell viability in a long-term test (sperm survival test), which can last up to 24 hours. This enables us to make a precise recommendation for insemination (IUI), In-Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) or Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI).
In addition to extended sperm diagnostics, as part of andrological diagnostics, we examine the male sex and thyroid hormones to check whether hormonal regulation is functioning properly. Using 3D testicular ultrasound, we can detect possible changes in the testicles and epididymis, and, thanks to colour-coded Doppler technology, we can also detect varicose veins in the testicles, for example.
As with women, in special cases, a pollutant exposure analysis or ahousehold screening of trace elements can also provide information on fertility problems in men.
