We just
discussed one issue of male factors in the infertility realm—azoospermia.
Actually the entire proportion of male factors in the infertility indications
is around 35-40%, and they were divided into the following groups.
By using
several assisted reproductive techniques, such as intracytoplasmic sperminjection (ICSI) and intracytoplasmic morphologically selected sperm injection
(IMSI), the average fertilization rate was raised up to 70%-80%. However, complete
fertilization failure or very-low fertilization rate still occurred in around
1-5% of IVF-ICSI cycles. In this case, the issue of incomplete oocyte
activation was concerned. The interactions between oocyte and sperm during
fertilization was displayed as follows.
