Infertility is a disease of the male or female reproductive system, defined by the failure to achieve a pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse, as per the World Health Organization (WHO). This condition affects millions of people of reproductive age globally, impacting not only the individuals but also their families and communities. Estimates indicate that between 48 million couples and 186 million individuals are living with infertility worldwide.
In the male reproductive system, infertility is often caused by issues such as difficulties in the ejection of semen, absence or low sperm count, or abnormalities in sperm shape (morphology) and movement (motility). In females, infertility can arise from various factors, including abnormalities in the ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes, and endocrine system, among others. Infertility can be categorized into two types: primary infertility, where a pregnancy has never occurred, and secondary infertility, where at least one previous pregnancy has been achieved.
Embryologists primarily collaborate with physicians to assist patients facing reproductive health challenges and contribute to clinical research. They are responsible for retrieving eggs, facilitating in vitro fertilization (IVF), maintaining clinical records, and conducting tests on eggs. Employment opportunities for clinical embryologists are typically found in hospitals and fertility clinics, but they may also engage in laboratory work or pursue academic positions.
The Advanced Clinical Genetics and Embryology program encompasses comprehensive training to equip participants with essential skills in infertility management and reproductive technologies. Key components of the training include:
Laboratory Setup: Understanding the optimal organization and functionality of a laboratory environment for reproductive health.
Equipment: Familiarization with specialized equipment used in fertility treatments and assessments.
Media Handling: Techniques for preparing and managing media essential for embryo culture and sperm preparation.
Semen Collection and Delivery: Learning proper methods for semen collection, ensuring quality and viability.
Macroscopic Examination: Performing initial assessments of semen samples for volume, viscosity, and other physical characteristics.
Microscopic Examination: Conducting detailed microscopic analysis for sperm count and motility, using parameters such as PR (Progressive Motility), NP (Non-Progressive Motility), and IP (Immotile).
Morphology Evaluation: Assessing sperm morphology to identify any structural abnormalities.
Sperm Preparation Techniques: Mastering methods such as Density Gradient (DG) and Swim-up techniques to enhance sperm quality for assisted reproduction.
Vitality Assessment: Techniques to evaluate the viability of sperm cells.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) Methods: Gaining hands-on experience in IUI procedures and the technical aspects of insemination.
Semen Cryopreservation and Thawing: Learning the principles and practices of freezing and thawing semen for long-term storage.
This training is vital for those seeking a career in reproductive medicine and embryology, providing both theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary for success in the field.
