Incompatible Between Sperm and Egg Cause Infertility Treated by IVF

What is incompatible between sperm and egg?

In clinical statistics, the rate of incompatible sperm and egg is less than 2%. Infertility caused by "incompatibility between sperm and egg" is known as immunologic infertility. Antisperm antibodies are produced against sperm when it is mistakenly identified as an invader that causes an immune system response in either the male or female body. When antisperm antibodies appear in the reproductive tract, they frequently cause infertility. Antisperm antibodies are identified as the cause of infertility, and in vitro fertilization treatment is required for pregnancy.
 

Having a Baby with Incompatible Sperm and Egg

A blood test can confirm the presence of antisperm antibodies, which cause sperm and egg incompatibility. A sperm and egg compatibility test is recommended for people who have unexplained infertility, immune disorders, or recurrent miscarriages. Tracking immune markers prior to implantation can also help with medication-based control.

Pre-pregnancy examinations and assessments are recommended for those who have sperm and egg incompatibility. Combining in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI) allows the sperm to avoid contact with antisperm antibodies while attempting to conceive.
 

Case of Sperm and Egg Incompatibility

Mr. Yu and his wife visited Lee Women's Hospital two years ago. They've been married for four years, but his wife is unable to conceive. Following an examination, it was determined that their infertility was caused by incompatible sperm with the egg. After careful consideration, they decided to undergo in vitro fertilization treatment.

There is a way where there is a will. They finally have a sweet baby girl, who is now two years old. Mr. Yu and his family pay a visit to Dr. Lee, the director of Lee Women's Hospital. They wrote a thank you card to Dr. Lee and his professional team, saying, "Thank you for your experts in helping us have a cute daughter.
