Platinum Assurance Guaranteed Program Requirements:
For those participating in our Platinum Assurance Program, which guarantees outcomes, we have specific sperm quality criteria:
- Sperm Concentration (sperm count): The number of sperm per milliliter of semen. A normal range is usually considered to be 15 million sperm per milliliter or more.
- Sperm Motility: The percentage of sperm that are moving actively. A normal range is typically around 40% or more of sperm exhibiting progressive motility.
- Sperm Morphology: The percentage of sperm with a normal shape. The WHO suggests that at least 4% of sperm should have normal morphology.
- Volume of Semen: The total amount of semen ejaculated. Normal values are usually around 1.5 to 7.6 milliliters.
- Note about potential need of Sperm DNA Fragmentation: Sperm fragmentation analysis becomes essential in specific cases, such as when intended parents have a history of multiple unsuccessful IVF cycles, are diagnosed with varicocele, experience recurrent pregnancy loss, or are influenced by age-related factors. Sperm DNA fragmentation refers to breaks in the genetic material (DNA) housed within sperm. This genetic code, a double helix structure, can experience breaks that impact one or both strands of the helix. These disruptions in the genetic makeup of spermatozoa may underlie fertility challenges, including low fertilization and pregnancy rates, compromised embryo quality, and heightened miscarriage rates. Notably, these effects can manifest even when other parameters analyzed in the semen sample appear normal.
In certain instances, discrepancies may arise between the initial assessment of sperm values and the values obtained during the subsequent stages of the IVF process, such as freezing or fertilization. It is worth noting that the validity of sperm analyses is generally recognized for a period of six months. Therefore, to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data, the final confirmation for participation in a guaranteed program should be based on the clinic’s assessment of sperm quality at the time of collection and freezing. This approach ensures that the most current and relevant information is considered, contributing to the success and effectiveness of the assisted reproductive procedures involved.
In certain scenarios, it is possible that specific criteria may fall below the suggested values; however, if other crucial parameters remain within a favorable range, our embryology team may still approve the sperm for inclusion in our guaranteed programs. Therefore, when reviewing the results, we encourage you not to feel discouraged. The final confirmation for participation in these programs is contingent upon the careful evaluation conducted by our experienced embryology team.
