Description
Antisperm antibodies may be present in the course of infertility of immune genesis in semen, in cervical secretions or in serum.
These antibodies have also been described in isolated cases in patients after Vasectomy or in the course of genitourinary infections.
Antisperm antibodies are present in about 10% of infertile men. These antibodies may be present in boys at puberty with infections of the genitourinary tract. Antisperm antibodies are most often found in people of childbearing age and the percentage of antibodies found decreases with age.
In cases of failure in trying to get pregnant, antibodies can be present in women or men and can be found in both primary and secondary infertility cases. In women, alloantibodies against sperm are produced. Antisperm antibodies interfere with the course of various processes during fertilization, resulting in the inability to get pregnant naturally.
Testing for sperm antibodies is often the first clue to the cause of unexplained infertility.
Methods for finding these antibodies in serum and semen are indirect and direct immunofluorescence.
According to WHO recommendations, both serum and semen should be tested for all classes of immunoglobulins.
