What is a Grade-3 Varicocele and How is it Treated?

Does Grade 3 Varicocele Require Surgery?

Grade 3 varicocele is the most severe type of this disease, which is associated with constant pain in the scrotum, testicular atrophy, and infertility.

Sex Selection with IUI: Can you Choose a Gender with IUI?

Some people use PGD to select the gender of their baby in order to balance their family, avoid gender-related genetic disorders, and increase the chance of conceiving. In IUI sex selection, the doctor examines sperms in the laboratory to find and transfer the ones with preferred chromosomes (XX or XY). The success rate of sex selection with IUI depends on the mother's age, but generally, it ranges from %2 to %20.
