This study, conducted by the IVI Foundation and presented at the 39th Congress of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE), analyzed the presence of non-essential trace elements in follicular fluid, plasma, and urine on both the day of ovarian puncture and embryo transfer. Thanks to this study, we now know that poorer… View Article
One of the most emotional moments of pregnancy undoubtedly is the first ultrasound. The first image of the embryo in the mother’s uterus, during the early weeks of gestation, is a unique experience for the expectant parents.

A low sperm count indicates that the seminal sample contains a lower number of spermatozoa than normal. This condition is known as oligospermia, while the complete absence of spermatozoa is called azoospermia. We consider it a low sperm count when the sperm concentration is below 15 million per milliliter. We are seeing a growing level… View Article
Sperm motility is the ability of sperm to move, in a straight line or a large sweeping curve. It is one of the three measures of sperm health, the other two being sperm count and sperm morphology, i.e. having a normal shape. Motility is important for fertility because if sperm have it poor, they are… View Article
