Poor Sperm Health
Oligozoospermia
Explanation: Low sperm count in the ejaculate.
May be caused by:
- Poor production of sperm
- Impaired transport of sperm
Causes of poor production:
- Stress
- Infections
- Hormonal imbalance
- Diabetes
- Cancer surgery
- Malposition of testes
- Genetic & environmental factors
- Alcohol or drug abuse
Causes of impaired transport
- Inflammation
Varicocele (varicose veins)
Genetic conditions
Help from PROfertil®
- By using PROfertil® sperm density was increased by 215.5% on average.
Asthenozoospermia
Explanation: Reduced motility of the sperm in the ejaculate.
Help from PROfertil®
- In the control group, PROfertil increased the number of progressively moving sperm by 83.1% in the treatment group.
- Total motility (movement) is increased by 36.4% on average.
Increased motility of the sperm combined with an improvement in all other sperm parameters lead to an increase in the rate of fertilisation
Teratozoospermia
Explanation: Increased levels of abnormally shaped sperm (sperm morphology)
Help from PROfertil®
- By using PROfertil sperm morphology was improved from -2,4% to 23,0%
Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (“triple defect”)
Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia is an abnormal change of sperm with three abnormal parameters:
- Not enough sperm (“oligo”)
- Low motility of the sperm (“astheno”)
- Increased levels of abnormally shaped sperm (“terato”)
Caused by:
- Malposition of testes
- Varicocele
- Chromosome abnormalities
- Hormonal imbalance
- Infections
- Medication or alcohol/drug abuse
Help from PROfertil®
- Sucessful improvement of: sperm density, motility and morphology
DNA fragmentation
Sperm is the bearer of genetic information – it has to transport the DNA safely packed packaged into the egg.
Help from PROfertil®
- Latest results of the 2012 clinical study showed that male infertility may also be associated with damaged genetic material (DNA fragmentation). After three months of taking PROfertil® there was a successful increase in undamaged DNA from 56% to 74%.
