Fertility, one of the leaders in fertility treatment in India, today announced
the launch of Androlife, an unique centre providing a wide range of
advanced male fertility treatments all under one roof, on the eve of World IVF
day.
Infertility is thought to be an woman’s issue, and
women are generally treated for infertility. They are the ones who
ultimately bear the child, and regardless of the fertility problem, the woman’s
body is usually the site of treatment. Worldwide nearly 1 couple in 6 is
infertile and in these couple's upto 50 percent is attributed to male
infertility.
Although more men are talking about it now, but it
remains stigmatized, and men are largely absent from treatments around
infertility, and even those who have looked for treatment wants to be anonymous
as it is still damaging to be identified as someone struggling with male infertility. Androlife
will address this issue headon and create a space where physicians, and would
be parents are more aware of this male factor, and get treated for the issues
sooner.
Commenting on the occasion
Dr. Nilesh Unmesh
Balkawade, Clinical Head & Fertility Specialist, said, “Illnesses,
injuries, chronic health problems, lifestyle choices and other factors may
contribute to male infertility. Clinically, male infertility can be caused by
low sperm production, abnormal sperm function or blockages that prevent the
delivery of sperm. It is important to identify the proper reason for
infertility and provide the necessary treatment at the right time. Androlife
will address this problem and create a space for the right treatment. We
specialize in advanced sperm selection techniques for IVF like micro-TESE,
MACS, Microfluids, IMSI, etc.”
"Dr.Aarti Nimkar IMA president said changing
lifestyle & pollution are responsible for raising Fertility issues not only
in women but also in men. This Initiative will help patients with male
Infertility and complex issues to conceive"
Male infertility is on the rise due to many factors
such as stress and tension, varicocele, obesity, use of gadgets, lifestyle
changes, foods, etc. There are no significant symptoms in the case of male
infertility and many men unknowingly doesn’t seek consultation at the right
time. Many are unaware of the harmful effects of stress and tension and gadgets
like smartphones and laptops on fertility. In rural India male infertility is
linked to the pesticide exposure in the farmer community. Androlife specializes
in advanced treatments like Micro TESE (Microdissection Testicular Sperm
Extraction) which is used to retrieve sperms from testicles in case of men
who suffer from Azoospermia(absence of sperm in semen).
