Benefits of sperm washing

The general principle of sperm washing is that sperm will be put into an available chemical (this chemical is also a sperm culture medium), then put into a centrifuge. Centrifugal force in the camera will separate the healthy sperm on one side, and the dead, weak or deformed sperm will be separated on the other side.

Sperm washing is a very important step in the process of intrauterine insemination (also known as IUI). Before injecting sperm into the uterus, the lab technicians will conduct a sperm wash to clean the sperm, to ensure that the sperm entering the uterus are healthy and of good quality. Besides, this technique also has the following benefits:
Sperm washing technique will assist in selecting normal, good motile sperm and concentrating these sperm in a small volume, which is favorable for assisted reproductive methods. Sperm washing will remove dead cells, microorganisms, toxins with sperm and a large part of prostaglandins in semen. At the same time, it is possible to avoid uterine contractions when doing sperm injection into the uterus. Stimulates the activation of sperm head and creates good conditions for sperm to fertilize an egg as well as reduce the risk of infection from semen and anaphylaxis when sperm is injected into the uterus.

Through many studies, the success rate of the sperm pump washing method varies from 6 to 26%, depending on many factors such as: Causes of infertility, the higher the number of follicles, the higher the rate. The higher the success rate, the higher the quality of the sperm, the higher the probability of success.
So how is the sperm washing process? Accordingly, the general principle of sperm washing is that sperm will be put into an available chemical (this chemical is also a sperm culture medium), then put into a centrifuge. Centrifugal force in the camera will separate the healthy sperm on one side, and the dead, weak or deformed sperm will be separated on the other side.
With this sperm washing technique, the doctor will help the doctor select the good sperm in a small volume to perform the method of sperm injection into the uterus. However, before being injected into the uterus, the washed sperm will be evaluated and checked for quality again. Thus, the sperm washing process is an indispensable thing in the process of washing and pumping sperm.

In short, the sperm washing technique will help select healthy, well-motile sperm when injecting semen into the uterine cavity. The effectiveness of the infertility treatment method depends on many factors, including the requirements for sperm quality and index after washing.
