IUI
IUI - Intrauterine Insemination.
Our ob-gyne had an IUI patient earlier. Since we're assigned in the laboratory, we get to do the Sperm Analysis and the Washing/Centrifugation of Sperms. This was my 2nd IUI run experience. The guy has healthy sperms, the problem is with the egg cells. Sad thing here is before we started the procedure, we had 2 teenage patients who had a positive pregnancy test without them wanting to have a baby, then this couple, spends thousands of money just to be blessed with a baby.. :(
Here's a pic of the sperms of the patient under the microscope.
As you can see, those with heads that looks like a bulb and a tail are the sperms, he's got millions of sperms if we count it using our method.. it's just that the egg of the female patient is not healthy enough to be fertilized. :( So they tried this IUI method.. I just hope they'd be blessed by a child. We'll know the results after a month. :)
After the process, we've got meryenda from Dra. Rañola..
Palabok and Donuts :) That's Sir Dante, our X-ray Tech on the first pic. This is one of the reasons why I'm gaining weight at work. -_-
