HOS – Sperm Function Test for Vitality

Sperm Function Test for Vitality (HOS) at Nex IVF

The diagnostic tool utilized in this study is the HOS (Hypo Osmotic Swelling) Sperm Function Test, used to determine the viability, that is, ‘liveability’, of sperm cells. It is this test that determines the sperm’s ability to fertilize an egg, in case traditional semen analysis reveals reduced motility or bad quality sperm. We, at Nex IVF, provide the HOS Sperm Function Test, to have a more detailed idea about the health of sperm so that better personalized fertility treatment plan can be prepared for those couples dealing with male infertility.

What Makes Nex IVF The Best Choice For HOS Sperm Function Test?

Sperm vitaly Accurate evaluation
The HOS test is a test of sperm vitality, measuring a sperm’s ability to swell in a hypoosmotic solution—it indicates whether (or not) the sperm’s membrane is intact (and therefore working right). Sperm with whole membranes are better at getting into an egg. However, this is a very good test in a patient with low sperm motility to rule out live, immotile sperm as well as dead sperm.

Male Infertility Cases: Essential
This particular test is useful for men following low sperm motility or unexplained infertility. It offers important insights not revealed in a standard semen analysis. When we know what percentages of live sperm we have, we can make recommendations as to what type of fertility treatment might be best: ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection), for example where even immotile but live sperm can be used in order to fertilize an egg.
