Sperm morphology rate of one percent is not acceptable for IVF in most cases.
The normal morphology rate of sperm should be more than four percent. If the normal morphology rate of sperm is only one percent, it means that the sperm has a high deformity rate, which means that the deformity rate reaches 99 percent, and the chances of getting pregnant are relatively low.
A normal malformation rate of more than 96% is considered as dyszoospermia, which will reduce the chances of pregnancy for the spouse, and even if the pregnancy is conceived, it may also reduce the quality of the pregnancy, such as developmental abnormality and fetal malformation.
There are many factors that increase the rate of sperm deformities, such as abnormal development of the testicles, inflammation of the genitourinary system, chromosomal abnormalities, and reduced hormone levels. Unhealthy lifestyle habits of drinking and smoking, staying up late and lack of exercise can also lead to increased sperm deformity rate. Relevant tests must be performed.
Most of the sperm morphology rate of one percent is not acceptable for IVF. If further counseling is needed, it is recommended to consult the hospital’s reproductive department.
