A male factor is involved in 60% of cases of couples' infertility. Forty percent
are primarily male and 20% are combined male and female. Thus, when a couple is
having trouble conceiving, it makes sense not only to evaluate the woman but to
evaluate the man as well.
Sperm takes 3 months to produce and mature and there is often a 4 to 6 month
delay between treatment of the man and resulting changes in the sperm. Since the
evaluation of the woman may take several months, it is recommended that a
comprehensive and accurate semen analysis be scheduled at the outset in order to
evaluate the male partner. Treatment of the man can then occur at the same time
as treatment of the woman and there will be no additional delay once the woman's
treatment is completed.
Varicoceles are dilated veins in the scrotum (similar to varicose veins in the
legs). These veins are dilated because the blood does not drain properly from
them. These dilated veins allow extra blood to pool in the scrotum, which has a
negative effect on sperm production. This condition is the most common
reversible cause of male factor infertility and may be corrected by minor
outpatient surgery.
Most experts perform this surgery microscopically to preserve the arterial
supply and lymphatics. A sub-inguinal incision (about one inch above the penis
and one inch from the midline) is usually used, as this avoids incising the
abdominal muscles and creates less post-operative pain.
Sperm carrying ducts may be missing or blocked. A patient may have bilateral
(both sides) congenital (from birth) absence of the vas deferens. He may have
obstructions either at the level of the epididymis (the delicate tubular
structure draining the testes) or higher up in the more muscular vas deferens.
He may have become mechanically blocked during hernia or hydrocele repairs. He
may have become blocked by scar tissue as a response to an infection.

Fertility Alternatives
We are a premier provider of Egg Donation and Surrogacy services. Our goal is to
provide you the very best infertility options relating to Egg donation and
Surrogacy. Our quality control standards are high and we are registered with the
FDA.
Gestational Surrogates (GS) go through a procedure called an "embryo
transfer".This procedure allows the doctor to take the intended mother's/donor
eggs to be fertilized by the intended father's/donor sperm in a petri dish. This
is called In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).
After the fertilized eggs become embryos, a certain number of embryos will be
inserted into the uterus of the surrogate. This procedure causes little or no
pain, but does require up to a few days of bedrest to allow the embryos to
implant into the uterine lining. A Surrogate should take it easy for the next
couple of weeks.
The hope is that at least one will stick and grow into a baby.* Women who have
had a Tubal ligation can still be a estational Surrogate.
The Surrogate and her husband or sexual partner will be required to undergo
blood testing for infectious diseases. The Surrogate will also have a pelvic
exam, vaginal cultures, and a Hysteroscopy (a small scope inserted into the
vagina, cervix, and uterus, to view the condition of the uterus.Your
husband/sexual parter must be willing to undergo the necessary blood tests, in
order to qualify for this program.
