OBJECTIVE: To investigate glycodelin (Gd) binding to the surface of sperm cells in relation to sperm morphology and seminal plasma Gd. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: University-based IVF Unit, Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics.
Morphology
Morphology refers to the shape of the sperm cell upon visual examination under a microscope.
Morphology -- The shape of sperm as studied in a semen analysis.
Mosaicism -- Having more than one blood line. For example, instead of having all 46XX cells, a mosaic may have a combination of 46XX and 45X cells.
MORPHOLOGY: A description of the shape and size of sperm. The lower the percentage of normal sperm, the less likely it is that fertilization will take place.
Morphology: The physical structure and configuration of sperm cells.
Morula: The stage of cell division prior to blastocyst. It is a solid mass of blastomeres formed by cleavage of a fertilized egg.
Sperm morphology - Size and shape of sperm. Indicates the percentage of sperm that appear normal when semen is stained and viewed under a microscope.
Sperm motility - The ability for sperm to swim.
SPERM MORPHOLOGY - The evaluation of the size and shape of sperm in a semen sample.
SPERM MOTILITY - The ability of sperm to swim.
Morphology:
Yes, sperm come in all shapes and sizes. But generally, a healthy, mature sperm has an oval head, a cylindrical middle, and a long, tapering tail. If more than half of the sperm are abnormal, there may be a fertility problem.
Morphology
A branch in biology, which deals with the study of form and structure, such as assessing the shape of sperm during semen analysis.
Motility
The quality or state of being motile; such as the forward swimming motion of healthy sperm ...

Sperm Morphology - The size and shape of individual sperm. Sperm morphology is assessed during a semen analysis as part of routine infertility testing. Good sperm have a long tail and an oval head.
Sperm Morphology - a semen analysis factor that indicates the number or percentage of sperm in the sample that appear to have been formed normally. Abnormal morphology includes sperm with kinked, doubled, or coiled tails.
HOWEVER if morphology is poorer than average, motility is lower than average or the count is in the low normal range, the cause can usually be found in a lifestyle evaluation. These problems can usually be overcome relatively easily.
Sperm morphology - Refers to the size and shape of the sperm and abnormal sperm morphology can indicate male factor infertility.
Sperm maturation - Sperm take 90 days to fully mature as they grow and attain better motility for fertilization.
Sperm morphology. This is a measure of the percentage of sperm that have a normal shape.
Sperm motility. This is a measure of the percentage of sperm that can move forward normally.

Sperm A male reproductive cell. Sperm Morphology The size and shape (form) of an individual sperm. Sperm Motility The ability of sperm to move and swim in a forward direction. STD See Sexually Transmitted Disease.
SEMEN ANALYSIS (SA)- Freshly ejaculated semen is evaluated under microscope to count the number of sperm, the percentage of moving sperm (motility), assess the size and shape of the sperm (morphology).
Semen Analysis: A laboratory test used to assess semen quality: sperm quantity, concentration, morphology (form), and motility.
This is why the diagnosis of poor sperm morphology can be such a blow to one's ego --- it is so totally unexpected, because it is not associated with other symptoms or signs.
Since most of you already have had your morphology/gender scans done... (Congrats to all who know the sex!) I posted a blog yesterday called 'All wrapped up in the colour...' which has a picture of my ultrasound.
Sperm morphology or shape- Normal is > 14% "highly normal."
Additional semen contents, such as white blood cells, an indication of infection. Less than five white blood cells per high power field is considered normal.
Now 18weeks and will have my second ultrasound (morphology scan) this week, cant wait to find out the sex of my babies! Any recommendations concerning labour / birth, go naturally or start planning for a C-section? Big thank you too babycentre.
It can have significant harmful effects on sperm motility, sperm morphology and erectile function. The effects correlate with the amount smoked, so men who smoke should cut back as much as possible even if they can't completely give up.
If the sperm count, motility and morphology scores are low, intrauterine insemination is unlikely to work.IUI is most commonly used for unexplained infertility.
My husband just had a sperm analysis. is 12% morphology cause for a problem?
The rest of the report appears to be normal....

However, it does seem quite likely that even moderate alcohol consumption can kill some of the sperm producing cells in the testicles and can contribute to faulty sperm morphology.
Multiple semen analysis. At least two semen examples are collected on separate days to examine the semen and sperm for various factors, such as semen volume, consistency, and pH, and the sperm count, motility, and morphology (shape).
This makes the transport of both egg and sperm easier. It also helps to increase sperm counts, motility, healthy morphology and the number of effective, fertile sperm. Three capsules, ½ teaspoon oil, or two tablespoons wheat germ is the usual dose.
- Sperm morphology (shape): In a fertile man’s sperm, up to 40 per cent may be abnormal- but problems arise when the majority are misshapen and defective. This condition is called Teratozoospermia.
Bike riding has been found to be a less than ideal way of exercising for the man trying to conceive. Also, men who over exercise and become underweight can also experience lower sperm mortality and poor sperm morphology.
