A first in Morocco and not less. A new technique of freezing embryos called vitrification has been successfully tested by Professor Omar Sefrioui, obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. Noureddine Louanjli biologist. This new technique provides hope for infertile couples. It will further improve the results in terms of in vitro fertilization (IVF). Instead of freezing eggs, sperm and embryos with the slow method, which requires efficient equipment and use of protective substances cells during freezing, it is possible to use vitrification, an ultra-fast. Vitrification is, in fact, put embryos in culture until the 5th or 6th day after fertilization, which is the ideal time because it happens when the embryo in the normal uterus. This technique has several advantages. It requires no equipment and applies to sperm, ova at all stages of embryonic development in vitro. The preparation cycle is simple, inexpensive and requires no anesthesia. In addition, it does not present a risk of ovarian hyperstimulation (complication related to the stimulation). This method can increase the rate of pregnancy. It was shown that vitrification can succeed up to 20% of pregnancies in Belgium and France and that newborns are in very good health. Morocco has nearly 14 centers in vitro fertilization identified three freezing. The aim of freezing is to reduce sperm, ova and embryos produced in vitro physiological temérature of 37C °, at -196 C, and then return (if necessary) a few months or few years later to 37C ° use or put in the uterus. The new method exists in Morocco for eight months and is feasible in all IVF centers. The first beneficiary of this treatment is now in its 14th week of pregnancy. This patient was followed for eight years for male infertility home (azoospermia total). An attempt at IVF was conducted in June 2007 with a satisfactory answer: 9 embryos, two of which have been vitrified. In Morocco, infertility affects 15% of couples. This situation is attributed to many factors including problems related to marriage that is increasingly delayed, pollution, sexually transmitted infections (STIs). With this addition, beliefs related to the pill and the biological clock. In other words, a child is when we can and not when it wants. It is also important to note that men and women share fully the responsibility where interest also educate men.
Experienced for the first time in Casablanca) First pregnancy for infertile couples, for new technology of embryo freezing More than 30% chance for couples suffering from infertility, according to practitioners They are thousands to make a journey of fighting to have a child, or about 15% of Moroccan couples young and old. A real public health problem. For more chance to couples who want a child but suffer from infertility, a new technique for freezing embryos called vitrification, already used in Belgium, Holland and Scandinavian countries, was inaugurated by two Moroccan Casablanca, taught at a press conference. This was concluded by "the success of the first pregnancy" through this technique to a young couple suffering from infertility for 8 years, said the medical team author of the intervention. In the case of this couple specific age of thirty, infertility is on the side of her husband. The technique of vitrification is to make embryos cultured until the 5th day. The process is validated and comes with being successful pregnancy of 14 weeks with a woman who was almost desperate to get pregnant and give birth one day. This was announced Wednesday in Casablanca by Professor Omar Sefrioui, obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. Noureddine Louanjli specialist in human biology? "It's to push centers medically assisted procreation to invest further in that direction, that we acted," said Professor Sefrioui. There is via Morocco 14 centers whose only 3 using the technique of freezing embryos. Freezing allows storage of eggs, embryos that can be used in case of early menopause for example. Dr Louanjli recalled that conservation is done in "consultation with an ethics committee of ulema". "The aim of freezing is to reduce sperm, ova and embryos produced in vitro physiological temperature (37 °) at -196 ° C (liquid nitrogen) and then bring them back, if necessary a few months, even a few years later, at 37 ° C for use or put in the uterus. The technique of vitrification is doubly interesting taught. First it allows a high success rate, the increase in the rate of 15 to 20% against only 8% success for the classic technique of freezing. Secondly, it is simpler and less costly. Infertility exists for 15 to 17% of couples in Europe. For Morocco, there are no statistics duly established, but it affected 15% of couples according to estimates by specialists. The couples involved, tens of thousands of people are desperately toured hospitals and clinics to solve their problem which is to have a child. The causes of infertility are multiple: first women are marrying later in life. There are early menopause. The problem of infertility may also be linked to pollution, the existence of a sexually transmitted infection undiagnosed. Then, ovarien age is not for women to biological age, which means that menopause can intervene early. There is also the POF. Men do not much involved in care. Taboos still surround the area with men who consult only for diagnosis of fertility. Often the problem of infertility creates divisions and rifts within the couple. But the problem of infertility seems democratically shared: 35% of cases of infertility from women, 30% of men and 30% of cases, it is a mixed problem where both partners are involved. In the Gulf countries more than 50% of infertility is due to men. There is talk of infertility and sterility. In the case of infertility is a situation of infertility final and without hope. But when we talk about infertility, there is still hope. First treatment. In this connection, if a medical review is conducted properly, it can identify the problem in 70 to 80% and possibly to treat. And in vitro fertilization is shown in 20% of cases among infertile couples or for failure of pre or tube defect (blocked), or abnormal sperm deep or advanced age of women (over 38 years). Regarding the treatment, one in three women suffering from infertility manages to be treated to become rich through a protocol medication.
