Andrositol® TEST as Diagnostic Assay to Predict the Fertilization Potential in IVF

Andrositol® TEST as Diagnostic Assay to Predict the Fertilization Potential of the Sperm in the in Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Procedures.

Andrositol® test allows to obtain additional information besides the WHO parameters and to evaluate the semen energetic status. The diagnosis is performed by analyzing the semen at two different time points: before the treatment and 30' after the addiction of myo-inositol directly to the semen. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the responsiveness to the Andrositol® test of a sperm sample can be predictive of its fertilization rate in an ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) cycle (primary outcome). Secondary outcomes as embryo development, embryo euploidy status and embryo implantation rate will be evaluated.
