SOS test for S***m Oxidative Stress
🔬For the 1 in 6 couples who need help starting a family, male factors will be the cause of up to 50% of infertility issues. Male and female fertility can be caused by any number of physical, hormonal, genetic, immunological or lifestyle factors, but whereas women are usually offered a wide range of tests to check their fertility, men have historically often only been offered a general semen analysis.
A correct diagnosis is one of the most crucial factors to ensure successful fertility treatment, and while a semen analysis identifies many fertility issues, 25 – 40% of male infertility cases remain ‘unexplained’ after a semen analysis.
Where our SOS test comes in: S***m Oxidative Stress has been linked to poor s***m function, abnormal semen analysis results, and damage to s***m cell membranes, affecting their shape and movement. The European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology also says that S***m Oxidative Stress is “the main cause of DNA damage”, which in turn could result in DNA errors within an embryo, causing lower pregnancy rates and a higher risk of miscarriage. All these factors contribute to failed IVF outcomes. Our SOS test can identify this issue quickly, and treatment can be simple.
