As part of our advanced fertility services, we provide the following screening :
AMH test is done to know the egg count, ovarian reserve, and quality of the reserve. The test is done to also know if a person’s ovaries are aging too quickly and reveal if a woman has a shorter or enough window to get pregnant. An AMH test reveals how a woman will respond to injectable fertility drugs to stimulate ovaries to mature multiple eggs in preparation for an IVF procedure.
The genetic integrity of sperm is a key consideration in fertility.
Any damage to the DNA of the sperm will interfere with the sperm's ability to properly fertilize an egg, develop a healthy embryo, and sustain a successful pregnancy. While conception is possible for men with sperm DNA fragmentation, it is important for fertility specialists to know the index so they can determine ahead of the success rate or otherwise of the IVF procedure. This information enables fertility specialists to make the best decision and advise clients on the best approach to achieving successful pregnancy and birth.
By this, clients save lots of money by not pursuing try-and-error IVF procedures and avoiding undergoing IVF procedures without knowing the quality of sperm being used or whether the sperm is good enough to achieve a successful pregnancy.
Sperm DNA fragmentation analysis is done before the IVF process ensuring only sperms with limited DNA defects are used for fertilization and improving the IVF success rate.
Currently, HAG hospital And Fertility Center is the only hospital and fertility center in Ghana and the third in Africa that runs automated sperm analysis with sperm DNA Fragmentation and Leukocytes Count. Test results indicating high levels of damaged DNA cannot be used for IVF treatment hence clients save money from proceeding with treatment.
