How does FERTIMAX 2 ™ work?

1. What is fertile sperm?

If you wish to have a child with your partner, then one of your spermatozoa has to fertilise her ovum. Although this event appears quite simple, it is in fact the result of extremely complex natural mechanisms.

The quality of your sperm is one of the decisive factors in this process.

The World Health Organisation has defined what constitutes fertile sperm:

 For a spermatozoon to successfully fertilise the ovum :

• There must be a volume of at least 2.0 millilitres of sperm in order for it to be able to transport a sufficient quantity of spermatozoa towards the female genital apparatus.
• The ejaculation must transport at least 20 million spermatozoa per millimetre of sperm. Although several tens of millions of spermatozoa arrive at the level of the cervical mucus, only a few thousand will make it to within range of the ovum and a sole chosen one will fertilise the oocyte.
• At least 75% of these spermatozoa must be alive.
• The spermatozoa must be good swimmers to be able to make it up the cervix, then the Fallopian tubes and finally to the oocyte. Sperm is said to be normal if more than 50% of the spermatozoa have motility.
• The spermatozoa have to be of the right shape. Although the cervical mucus does facilitate the access of spermatozoa to the tubes, it also forms a filter that eliminates weak or abnormal spermatozoa. The World Health Organisation considers sperm to be normal if more than 50% of the spermatozoa have a normally shaped head. Spermatozoa with abnormally shaped heads have trouble making it through the cervical mucus. Any abnormality in the shape of a spermatozoon's head will also reduce its ability to penetrate the surface of the ovum.
• The spermatozoa must not be agglutinated. Spermatozoidal agglutination means that the motile spermatozoa are attached to each other, either by the head, by their mid-piece, by their flagellum or a mixture of these, for example head-flagellum agglutination. If spermatozoa are agglutinated, then they will not be able to migrate towards the ovum.

2. Oxidative stress: the enemy of sperm

Oxidative stress is a type of attack on cell components which oxidizes proteins, DNA and cell membranes (lipids).

Sperm, particularly the head of the sperm which contains the genetic material, are very sensitive to oxidative stress. To protect itself, the body produces primary antioxidant molecules such as glutathione, alpha lipoic acid, coenzyme Q-10 etc. Secondary antioxidants are present in our diet.
