Male Infertility Meet Professor Sheryl Homa – Clinical Scientist and director of Andrology Solutions, an HFEA licensed male fertility clinic offering expert care and advice on men's fertility. Sheryl spoke about how we currently deal with infertility is wrong and how Sheryl she believes the triaging for fertility is inappropriate. Women are fully investigated however there is currently very little focus on the man. As a result, couples are put forward for IVF treatment when they may not necessarily need it. If a man is investigated appropriately and treated then men's fertility may be improved to optimize their natural fertility or improve their chances of successful IVF treatment. Sheryl recommends that GPs consider referring men to a urologist or andrologist early on for proper management. More awareness on this issue is required and greater empowerment and education of both GPs and patients. A physical examination or ultrasound scan Can pick up conditions such as a varicocele or an obstruction. Varicocele repair is not always successful and not indicated for very small varicoceles, however, pregnancy rates following a repair are equal to or better than IVF success rates. Whilst it repairs fertility, IVF gives the couple a baby but the couple is still infertile, there is no treatment for their infertility. Men may not always notice a varicocele, however, it is most likely to present on the left side, the teste may be larger, may feel discomfort and the pain may come and go. Men also complain of their teste feeling like a bag of worms. Lifestyle factors and male fertility More men are being diagnosed with poor sperm parameters from using protein supplements and shakes. A recent study showed that these supplements contained some steroid compounds. Sheryl recommends that men should not take any protein supplement or shake as not all ingredients are listed. Supplements such as antioxidants work to reduce oxidative stress. A varicocele can raise oxidative stress and damages DNA. You can have a normal sperm analysis but still have oxidative stress. Sheryl recommends that men have oxidative stress testing before starting antioxidants and then repeat testing after 12 weeks. Mumps in adult men The mumps virus can cause inflammation of the testes and can cause men's tubes to become blocked. Men have 6kms of tubes in their testes! Sheryl believes that unexplained infertility is actually un-investigated when it comes to men. She recommends that men are proactive and ask their GP for a referral to an uro-andrologist and that fertility clinics are more inclusive in working with male fertility specialists. Treating male infertility will reduce the need for invasive IVF and the demand on NHS resources, leaving more money for couples who really need IVF treatment. Support for men – men need support and information in a different format to women and a podcast or male-only fertility support groups on Facebook, for example, allows for anonymity.

When it comes to Male Fertility, there's so much to talk about in today's episode we're getting under the skin of sperm issues... it's the science bit, discussed by two male fertility experts. GETTING TECHNICALThere is a lot of information in here from discussions about the surgery that can be performed to assist with sperm blockages to explaining how we can overdose with supplementations when we're trying to improve our health. Dr. Muhammad Akhtar is a highly experienced Consultant Gynaecologist and an accredited sub-specialist in reproductive medicine, Muhammad specializes in male infertility, andrology, and 3D gynecological scanning. Dr. Akhtar explains how men who have any medical conditions in their youth, such as diabetes or high blood pressure or need hormone treatments, should have a fertility assessment early as their sperm health might be better earlier and they could freeze samples. He also explains how men make sperm every day, therefore, all lifestyle impacts such as diet, stress, smoking, heat exposure. It's important to remember that the sperm has been there for 60-70 days. This needs to be made clearer to men. Supplementation Dr. Akhtar talks about how it can be good and bad that men can take too much or change their lifestyle too much if they're making salads, eating kale…he advises that you need to choose carefully.

International Andrology Londonoffers the latest treatments in men's healthcare. As a member of the International Andrology (IA), an international collaborative network of the leading practitioners of Andrology its doctors are experienced, Urologist-Andrologist surgeons. We discussed how there are three categories of sperm issues: Functional:If there's a problem with the way the 'factory' is working Blockage If there's a blockage somewhere, even though the factory is working, so it's preventing the sperm to come to the outside Coital Eg.

It was an absolute pleasure to chat with Professor Sheryl Homa this week on the podcast. Sheryl Homa is an HCPC registered Clinical Scientist with a special interest in male fertility. She obtained her degrees in Biochemistry at Imperial College of Science and Technology and the Middlesex Hospital Medical School. She spent a large part of her career as an academic research scientist in the field of oocyte maturation, funded by the National Institutes of Health in the USA. For many years she served as Scientific Director of several fertility clinics in the UK working in both the public and private sectors. During this time, she became aware that male fertility is considerably marginalised and as a result, opened Andrology Solutions in 2007, the first and only HFEA licensed clinic of its kind, dedicated to male infertility. She has collaborated on many research projects and is the author of numerous scientific articles, abstracts and book chapters in the fertility field. Her studies include investigating calcium signaling in sperm and more recently, the role of oxidative stress and infection on sperm quality. Sheryl has been responsible for introducing and CE marking novel state of the art testing for male infertility, including a chemiluminescence assay for measuring seminal reactive oxygen species. Currently Sheryl is honorary Professor in Biosciences at University of Kent and consultant clinical lead for Andrology at The Doctors Laboratory. We chatted about how men are equally responsible for creating an embryo that would lead to a child, how half of the genetic material is from men and that the child is a reflection of the genetic material of both partners. That it isn't just about getting pregnant or staying pregnant but ultimately the health of a child. We talked about how sperm and eggs need to be as fit and healthy as they can be and how if the sperm or egg is damaged in anyway this passes to every cell of the child and this is an area that I talk about a lot with my clients: that we need to widen our vision looking further than just getting pregnant. This helps us make the changes necessary. Sheryl said something that really made sense to me and she said that she advises her male clients to act as though they are pregnant so in the few months leading up to conception to think about their sperm as that they are carrying pre babies. We know that 11 to 12 weeks is necessary for both the sperm and the egg to develop fully and so a preconception preparation plan is absolutely vital and she compared this to preparing for Wimbledon and saying that if you were going to compete at Wimbledon you wouldn't just rush on and play would you? No, you would prepare with training, health and with the right equipment. I’m a huge fan of an analogy myself, I’ve often used the example of how you wouldn’t ‘just run’ a marathon. We looked at how it's important to consider quality and not quantity and how this is important to maximise your chances of both natural and assisted fertility and we need the best quality egg and sperm. We talked about the sperm analysis and how this is a crucial first step and provides great information but it only tells you if there are potentially enough and we know the parameters are low, too low, and if sufficient are moving. However, it doesn't tell us whether the sperm is capable of getting to the egg or if it is capable of entering the egg or if it has the right triggers to ensure embryo development. Resistance infertility circles was something that we discussed as well and this letters onto the resistance amongst the fertility clinics to undertake two very specific tests that give it so much information about the sperm in terms of fertility but also importantly in terms of miscarriage and how this really should be offered to all couples experiencing recurrent miscarriage and those tests are the DNA fragmentation test and the oxidative stress test on the sperm. Something that comes up for me with my clients and with something that we discussed is how some Doctors and clinics will say that even if the test showed DNA fragmentation or oxidative stress there isn't anything that can be done about it, but Sheryl explained how there might be quite a bit you can do about it. We discussed also how a condition called Variocele maybe a huge factor in terms of sperm quality, how a full clinical history should be taken for male partners, how women have an ultrasound but that men aren’t examined at all. How underlying infections which are not looked at are an underlying cause of conception and potentially miscarriage as well and how a microbiology test on the sperm is a crucial test. Of course we discussed the recent documentary by Rhod Gilbert ‘stand up for infertility’ Which led us to chat about physical issues and emotional issues. Not only emotional issues in terms of how they may affect sperm physically but the lack of support for men who are going through a fertility journey. She mentioned a Facebook group the men's fertility support run by Gareth Down which I would urge you to point your male partners in the direction of We chatted about some basic general advice at the start of a couples fertility journey and we discussed as you've heard me talk about before why trying to conceive at or just before ovulation may in fact be too late and how important a regular ejaculate is because stored sperm is in effect rubbish sperm, and that again it's not just about numbers it's about freshness and quality She will also explained how we were missing a vital piece in the journey and that your GP referring you to the fertility clinic straight away which is ultimately for assisted fertility is like going to your doctor with heart palpitations and the doctor saying let's get you a heart transplant. She explains that IVF is circumvention, how it is not managing fertility and that after initial GP tests, further investigation should take place and treatments suggested to correct possible fertility factors. Further investigation can be undertaken by an Andrologist. Something of interest that was pointed out in Rhod Gilbert's documentary is that there are 8000 registered Gynaecologists in the UK and only 200 registered Andrologist. It is Gynaecologists with a specialism in Fertility that you are referred to at the Fertility clinic Considering an Andrologist looks at male fertility factors this clearly isn't representing half of the equation is it? She said something which I have been saying you will have heard me saying certainly my clients have heard me say but there is too much emphasis on pushing towards IVF when this may not be needed and if IVF is needed we should be paying more attention to improving the quality of the egg and the sperm .

Routine Screening, what is it and when should it be performed for fertility assessment? Currently there is no schedule for such testing, the reality is if routine screening was conducted early, different choices could be made, with potential treatment and/or intervention. Most clients find out they have fertility issues after having tried to conceive naturally for some time, however if given the knowledge earlier, they would have made different plans with their lives and family planning.
