Infertility due to a mechanical problem refers to an anatomical issue within the pelvis that either prevents the sperm and egg from meeting or hinders the embryo from implanting in the uterus.
Common examples of such issues include pelvic adhesions<\/strong> and blocked fallopian tubes<\/strong>.<\/p>

Pelvic adhesions are typically the result of previous infections or surgical procedures, such as those performed for ectopic pregnancies, ovarian cysts, cesarean sections, or fibroid removal.
Another common cause is endometriosis<\/strong>, a condition in which endometrial-like tissue grows outside the uterus. Endometriosis frequently leads to pelvic adhesions and is a well-recognized cause of mechanical infertility.<\/p>

The following diagnostic tests may help identify mechanical causes of infertility:<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The test is performed in an X-ray center under mirroring. During the test, a contrast agent is injected that fills the uterine cavity and, if there is no blockage in the fallopian tubes, the agent passes through them into the pelvis.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Sonohysterosalpingography is a diagnostic procedure in which sterile saline or a specialized foam is gently instilled into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes. Filling the uterine cavity with fluid enables high-resolution imaging of the uterine lining, similar in quality to that achieved with hysteroscopy. This allows for the detection of intrauterine abnormalities such as adhesions and polyps.<\/p>

An advanced version of the test includes 3D ultrasound imaging of the uterus<\/strong>, which helps identify congenital anomalies such as uterine septum, bicornuate uterus, and fibroids. The examination also includes an ultrasound evaluation of the ovaries to detect any abnormal findings.<\/p>

Because this test does not<\/strong> require iodine-based contrast material, it is suitable for women with allergies to iodine or fish. Additionally, there is no exposure to radiation<\/strong>, making it a safer option for many patients. One of its most significant advantages is that the procedure is minimally invasive and nearly painless<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Hysteroscopy involves the direct visualization of the uterine cavity using a thin optical fiber connected to a camera and monitor. A normal uterine cavity<\/strong> is one that is free from abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids, septa, or adhesions\u2014conditions that can reduce the likelihood of successful embryo implantation.<\/p>

During the procedure, gas or fluid is gently introduced into the uterine cavity to expand it and allow clear visualization of its walls. Hysteroscopy can be performed either without anesthesia<\/strong> or under brief general anesthesia<\/strong>, depending on the individual case and patient comfort.<\/p>

Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia in an operating room. After the abdomen is gently inflated with gas, a thin optical fiber connected to a camera and monitor is inserted through a small incision near the navel. This allows for direct visualization of the pelvic organs<\/strong>, including the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries, as well as the detection of other conditions that may impact fertility.<\/p>

If a treatable condition is identified during the procedure, additional small incisions<\/strong> may be made to insert surgical instruments, enabling immediate treatment or correction of the problem within the same procedure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A semen analysis provides key information about sperm health, focusing on three main parameters: concentration<\/strong>, motility<\/strong>, and morphology<\/strong>. The results of this test play a crucial role in determining the appropriate course of treatment.<\/p>

In 2011, a law was enacted in Israel allowing women aged 30 to 41<\/strong> without a partner to undergo ovarian stimulation and an egg retrieval treatment for the purpose of\u00a0 freezing unfertilized eggs<\/strong> for future use.<\/p>

It is important to note that egg freezing does not guarantee<\/strong> egg survival after thawing or the achievement of pregnancy. Since both the quality and quantity of eggs decline with age<\/strong>, it is advisable not to delay family planning when possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

This procedure involves the deliberate “scratching” of the uterine lining prior to treatment. The underlying assumption is that a healthy uterine lining will respond to this minor injury by increasing blood flow and releasing self-healing and regenerative substances into the area.<\/p>

This response may enhance the endometrium\u2019s ability to support embryo implantation<\/strong> during the subsequent embryo transfer cycle.<\/p>

The decision to perform an endometrial scratch is made on an individual basis<\/strong>, depending on each patient’s medical history and fertility treatment plan.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

This procedure involves taking a biopsy from an embryo\u2014either at the cleavage stage<\/strong> (around day 3, when the embryo has approximately 8 cells) or at the blastocyst stage<\/strong> (day 5\u20136). A single cell or a small group of cells is carefully removed and sent for genetic testing<\/strong>.<\/p>

Only embryos found to be chromosomally or genetically normal<\/strong> are selected for transfer to the uterus.<\/p>

PGT is commonly recommended in cases of:<\/p>

  • Known genetic or chromosomal disorders<\/strong> in one or both partners<\/p><\/li>

  • Repeated implantation failures<\/strong><\/p><\/li>

  • Recurrent miscarriages<\/strong><\/p><\/li><\/ul>

                  Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is a potential complication of fertility treatments involving ovulation induction. It presents with a broad range of clinical symptoms and is driven by two main mechanisms:<\/p>

                  1. Significant enlargement of the ovaries<\/strong>, due to the hormonal stimulation that leads to the recruitment of multiple follicles.<\/p><\/li>

                  2. Increased vascular and membrane permeability<\/strong>, which causes fluid to leak from the bloodstream and accumulate in third-space compartments<\/strong>\u2014such as the abdominal cavity, chest cavity, around the heart, and in subcutaneous tissues.<\/p><\/li><\/ol>

                    This fluid shift<\/strong> is the central cause of the complications associated with OHSS. As fluid leaves the blood vessels, blood volume decreases<\/strong>, leading to increased viscosity and a higher risk of blood clots<\/strong>. Additionally, patients may experience fluid and electrolyte imbalances<\/strong>, reduced urine output<\/strong>, and in severe cases, even kidney failure<\/strong>.<\/p>

                    Symptoms and Severity<\/h3>

                    • Mild OHSS<\/strong> is the most common form and occurs in 10\u201325%<\/strong> of cases. Symptoms include:<\/p>

                      • Abdominal bloating<\/p><\/li>

                            Management<\/h3>

                            In most mild cases, symptoms resolve on their own with rest and adequate hydration<\/strong>. Dr. Shlomi Barak and the clinic team monitor patients carefully during stimulation to minimize the risk of OHSS. In more serious cases, treatment may be delayed or stopped<\/strong>, and appropriate medical intervention will be initiated.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

                            • If donor sperm<\/strong> is being used, we recommend coordinating its transfer from the sperm bank at least one week prior to egg retrieval<\/strong> to avoid any delays in the process.<\/p><\/li>

                            • It is advisable to purchase all medications<\/strong> needed for the post-retrieval support phase in advance.<\/p><\/li>

                                Egg retrieval is performed under the guidance of a vaginal ultrasound probe<\/strong>, allowing precise access to the ovarian follicles. Immediately after retrieval, the follicular fluid is transferred to the laboratory<\/strong>, where the eggs are identified.
                                Upon waking from anesthesia, the patient is informed of the <\/span>number of eggs retrieved<\/strong> in real time.<\/span><\/span><\/p><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

                                Although egg retrieval is a routine and generally safe procedure, it is still considered minimally invasive<\/strong>, and complications are rare<\/strong>. In exceptional cases, there may be a risk of:<\/p>
