IMSI for severe teratozoospermia: does magnification help?
Randomized controlled trial · 100 couples
Library updated:
What was investigated and what was found?
In the double-blind trial, high-magnification selection did not significantly improve pregnancy or live birth over standard ICSI. Selected-sperm DNA damage measures were also similar.
Interpreting the findings
Results apply to the enrolled population and tested protocols; they are not a personal success prediction.
How can you prepare for a consultation?
Bring semen analyses, any DNA-fragmentation or urology/andrology reports, and previous fertilization results. Findings from both partners should guide discussion of IVF or ICSI planning.
Let us begin with your diagnosis, previous findings and goals as a couple. You can request an initial consultation with Prof. Dr. Mehmet Çolakoğlu to discuss what this research means for your own situation.
