Advanced Paternal Age

Male infertility contributes significantly to infertility, particularly in advanced paternal age men where sperm DNA fragmentation is increased. Conventional density gradient centrifugation may induce oxidative stress and sperm damage. LensHooke® CA0 is a centrifugation-free sperm sorting device designed to improve sperm quality and reduce DNA fragmentation. This prospective comparative study evaluates the effectiveness of CA0 versus conventional density gradient centrifugation on post-processing sperm quality, DNA fragmentation index, blastocyst formation, euploid embryo rate, and clinical pregnancy outcomes in IVF/ICSI cycles involving men aged 40 years or older
