The method detects the presence of DNA fragments using the most advanced SCD method. It evaluates the integrity of the DNA molecule, whereby high levels may be associated with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Age (&gt; 40)<\/li>\n<li>Unhealthy lifestyle (smoking, alcohol, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Increased oxidative stress<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The test <u>is recommended<\/u> to couples with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Low pregnancy success rates<\/li>\n<li>Poor embryo quality<\/li>\n<li>Suspended embryo development<\/li>\n<li>Recurrent miscarriages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>High rates of congenital abnormalities in offspring.<\/p>\n<p>DNA fragmentation may also possibly exist in cases when the remaining sperm parameters are within normal levels. Special lab semen treatment techniques are recommended in samples with high fragmentation (&gt;30%), such as isolation with microfluidic chips, as well as special assisted reproduction methods, such as ICSI and PICSI.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=&#8221;Relevant Topics&#8221;]\n\t<div class=\"kleo-carousel-container \">\n\t\t<div
