III. Diagnosis or test From Conventional Perspective from letter A to Z in Male patient
1. Acrosome reaction test
After the sample is taken your fertility specialist exam the acrosome reaction of your sperms to see how your sperm penetrate the female egg, how the enzymes (acrosome then acrosin released from the sperm head ) in sperm work through tough coating of the eggs and fgertilized it. The purpose of this test is to diagnosis the sperm acrosome then acrosin to see hoe these enzyme help to break tough surface of the egg. If not it may be the cause of infertility and specific treatment is required. It happens only 5% of infertility male population.
2. Antisperm antibody
An antisperm antibody test as defined as a test to look for abnormal function of immune system antibodies that fight against a male's sperm in blood, vaginal fluids, or semen. With a substance added to the sample sperm, the test will tell whether the sperm is affected by proteins of the immune system or not.
3. Biochemical analysis
The study of the chemical substances and vital processes occurring in male testicle such as the concentration of white blood cells, the level of fructose in the semen, and the volume, pH, and liquefaction time of the ejaculate.
4. Computer-Assist semen analysis
The sample of sperm is scanned in to the computer pre store program to show how the sperm quality, quantity, shape and movement. Since any small change of the computer may produce a significant change in sperm calculation, therefore any abnormal sperm count should be confirmed by manual count.
5. Hemizona assay
Hemizona assay is the analysis to compare sample sperm of the male to the sperm of the fertiliized male by splitting the marure and normal egg into 2 half. 1/2 is tested by sample sperm and the other half is tested by fertilitized male sperm.
6. Hormone evaluation
Hormonal evaluation is a study to measure the levels of certain hormones produced by your body such as levels of FSH and testosterone which are inlvoved directly in sperm production. The test will only be used is the semen of sperm anaalusis come back with low density of sperm or your specialist suspects that hormone imbalance is the cause of infertility.
7. Human zona pellucida binding test
The testes help to exam how the sperm bind to outer layer of the egg. including hemizona assay.
8. Hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST)
hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST) is the test used to identify sperm membrane for structure integrity by examining how the sperm tails react to special sugar and salt. Only healthy sperm can react in that circumstance.
9. Pene trak
Pene trak is the test for 90 minutes to check the movement of sperm through a normal and friendly mucus in the test tube.
10. Peroxidase staining
It is a test to check for infection by differentiating white blood cell from the immature sperm.
11.Post-coital/cervical mucus test
It is a test to see how friendly the mucus of the cervix toward the sperm invasion during ovulation. The result can be determined after
a) Male partner sperm with female partner cervical mucus
b) Male partner sperm with healthy mucus
c) Known healthy sperm with female partner mucus
d) Known healthy sperm with known healthy muscle
12. Sperm penetration assay (hamster test)
Sperm penetration test only is needed if the normal semen test can not determine the sperm penetration ability then hamster eggs with the ouster membrane has been stripped off are used in place of female eggs because of it's structural similarity to human eggs. After the sperm and hamster eggs have incubated for three hours, the eggs are checked for sperm penetration. Any percentage over 10 % is considered normal and potential for fertilization. Since is uses eggs than human being, good sperm penetration rate in hamster test does not guarantee 100% of positive result in human.
13.Sperm-Ubiquitin tag immunoassay (SUTI)
Sperm-Ubiquitin tag immunoassay ignores other sperm attributes and focusing solely on sperm's ubiquitin because ubiquitin is considered as a universal marker of any sperm abnormalities including sperm damage and sperm defective, thereby reducing some unecessary treatments.
14. Semen analysis
A semen analysis is usually the first test for all infertility male , it helps to measure the amount of semen a man produces and determines the quantity and quality of sperm such as size, shape. movement and PH level in the sample.
a) Normal form sperm
Ovary head, single tail with intact midsection and an uncoiled.
b) Abnormal heads
Head of sperm if too big or too small and other than ovary head.
c) Abnormal tails
Coil, broken, bent tail and other than single tail.
d) Immature gen cells
Since white blood cells and white gen cells have a very similar apprance and structure, it is up to the specialist to make sure that the present is immature gen cells and not white blood cells.
e) Vital staining
It is the analysis to see the percentage of dead sperm compare to lice one.
f) Urinalysis
It is to make sure the infertility is not caused by retrograde rejaculation and the urinary tract is not infected.
15. Scrotal sonography
Scotal sonography is used to evaluate the testicle disorder and surrouding organs including prostate gland, epididymis, an absent or undescended testicle and any testicle abnormality.
16.Testicle biopsy
A small is taken and tested for the ability of sperm producing cell to produce normal cells. This test is necessary if the infertility male is found to have no sperm in semen, normal sex levels of hormone and abnormal sperm with unknown cause. The risk of the test may cause testicle damage.
17. Vasography
Vasography is a Radiographic study of the vas deferens. It helps to determine if the vas deferens is blocked or not and the reason of such blockage. In this study, if there is large amount of sperm containing fluid presented when the vas deferens is open, it indicate there is a block appeared in the vesicle end of the vas deferens.
