Is it possible to achieve pregnancy with teratozoospermia?

-

Natural pregnancy with teratozoospermia can be complicated and, in the most severe cases, it is practically impossible for fertilization and subsequent development of the embryo to take place.

Men with infertility due to teratozoospermia will have to resort to assisted reproduction techniques to be able to be parents.

The appropriate fertility treatment will depend on many factors, not just the degree of abnormalities in the sperm. The rest of the seminal parameters, as well as the age and health status of the woman, are also limiting when it comes to getting the pregnant woman.

Below you have an index with all the points that we will discuss in this article.

Natural pregnancy

Amorphous sperm can make pregnancy difficult for one of the following reasons:

  • They present a greater difficulty of displacement due to their abnormal shape, which prevents them from reaching the ovum in the fallopian tube.
  • The anomalies of the head can prevent the sperm from penetrating inside the ovum in order to fertilize it.
  • When the cause of teratozoospermia is genetic, the resulting embryo may have alterations in its DNA that prevent its proper subsequent development.
Infertility due to teratozoospermia

All these reasons make natural gestation is not possible or that their arrival is delayed.

When the degree of teratozoospermia is mild, the normal sperm that exist in the semen itself could lead to a viable pregnancy. Depending on the parameters of concentration and sperm motility, the probability of natural pregnancy with teratospermia will be higher or lower.

On the other hand, when the teratozoospermia is moderate, severe or is associated with another alteration (oligozoospermia or astenozoospermia), the couple most likely needs to resort to a fertility treatment to have a child.

This represents an increase of 8% in the use of assisted reproduction techniques with respect to the previous year, which shows that more and more couples need help to have the opportunity to become parents.
