GENERAL INFORMATION
The unfertility affects 18,5 % of the couples, being 40 % of the cases due to the woman, 40 % to the man and in 20 % due to the two or known.
The attempts of many couples to treat the unfertility collide with a defeat that depends on the previous diagnosis you (cause), of the treatment to be realized and of the proper limitations of the skill. By it the causes must be known well in every case and realize well the expectation of every treatment, knowing that the percentage of successes diminishes with the age of the woman and with the times to which he has surrendered to the skills of fertilization (up to successes 1/3 in 4th attempt)
CURRENT SKILLS OF TREATMENT
An ovum and a sperm get together on a laboratory disc. If the ovum becomes possible to be fertilized, the embryo is transferred to the womb of the woman.
More than 25,000 fertilizations are realized a year with a percentage of successes of 18,6 %. The cost ranges between 4.600 and 6.100 euros.
Sperm cells transference to the Falopio horns
The gynecologist, by means of a laparoscopio, (rigid, thin, hollow pipe and with light) inserts straight in a horn of Falopio of the woman, an ovum and sperms, If it is fertilized the resultant embryo will appear in the womb.
There are realized more than 4000 procedures of this type a year with an index of successes of 28 %. The cost ranges between 4.600 and 6.100 euros.
Insemination intrauterina
It is the most usual procedure. By means of a catheter (pipe) there are sent frozen sperms of the husband or of an anonymous donor to the womb, across the vagina and the neck of the womb.
600.000 inseminations are realized approximately a year with an index of 10 % of successes (if the sperm belongs to donors). The cost ranges between 160 and 200 euros.
Zigotos transference to the Falopio horns.
The ova and the sperms are fertilized in the laboratory (by means of suitable cultivation means and in pipes) and then the fertilized zigotos are transferred to the Falopio horns by means of a laparoscopio.
Approximately 1500 interventions of this type are realized a year with an index of successes of 24 %. The cost ranges between 5.500 and 7.200 euros.
Sperm injection intracitoplasmática
It is realized by a microscopic pipette, by means of the injection of a sperm of the husband in an ovum. The fertilized zigoto gets in the womb.
1.000 procedures are realized a year with 24 % of successes.
The cost ranges between 6.000 and 9.100 euros.
