This International #MensHealthWeek, we want to shine a light on #malefertility. Although many men experience fertility issues, proper discussion is lacking. Let’s start the conversation about male fertility so men can take control of their health and avoid suffering in silence.

‘Nearly 40% of fertility problems in the UK have a male factor & it’s probably more than that because so many people have unexplained infertility’ Prof Jackson Kirkman-Brown, chair @ARCScientists @DrMotility #HIMfertility #Fighting4Fertility #NFAW2022 @HIMfertility

This is one of the most exciting graphs in our paper. It shows an increase in miscarriage with MALE age and isolating spermcomet with good DNA overcomes this issue. Good news for older couples having ICSI! Eshre#

I guess my own Q5: This graph demonstrates pICSI apparently compensating for the entire accepted ‘dogma’ female age effect - just by sperm selection. It therefore also challenges our understanding of how sperm may affect ability of oocyte to correct its own aneuploidy? #ESHREjc

It’s normal for men to have a level of sperm DNA damage, but if it reaches a threshold, #fertility problems can arise. Our Exact sperm DNA tests have the highest sensitivity, specificity & predictive power, allowing you to take control of your fertility: buff.ly/2qLnwIo

So you've received your #ExactTest result. What does it mean? High sperm DNA damage = lower sperm quality Low sperm DNA damage = higher sperm quality Whatever the result, don't get disheartened as there are ways to improve your #spermDNA. buff.ly/3xQWiOO #Fertility
