Approximately 10-15% of couples worldwide are unintentionally childless.
Fragile sperm DNA (DNA fragmentation) is responsible for reduced fertility in 20-30% of patients who visit a fertility clinic.
The SCSA test analyzes the stability of the sperm DNA (sperm genetic material) and is therefore a guide for further family planning.
It determines whether the chances of a successful pregnancy are higher naturally or with the help of treatment.
The SCSA test can be used to identify the cause of repeated unsuccessful fertility treatments, miscarriages or unexplained infertility.
Eliminating the cause can significantly improve the stability of sperm DNA and thus increase the chances of pregnancy.
Flow cytometry results (Each dot represents a single sperm):
(A) Low DNA Fragmentation
(B) High DNA Fragmentation
10,000 sperm will be in measured for
each patient sample
Routine semen analysis does not detect sperm DNA damage.
Our test results provide answers that guide and support treatment decisions to increase pregnancy rates.
…that poor quality sperm DNA can reduce the chance of pregnancy by up to 10 times?
…that studies show that couples with a DFI in the normal range (stable , barely fragmented DNA). Achieving a successful pregnancy is more likely through IVF/ICSI.
We’ve been trying to conceive for several years. My husband’s SCSA test diagnosed a lot of DNA damage. After the cause of this was identified and eliminated, the second test showed a significantly better DFI. A few months ago we got pregnant!
Thank you SCSA !
