Dubai’s AI Breakthrough in Infertility Treatment Offers Hope for Severe Male Infertility

  • 28/08/2025

Dubai’s Fakih IVF Centre has pioneered a breakthrough in infertility treatment by using artificial intelligence (AI) to help a couple conceive despite a diagnosis of severe male infertility. The male partner had non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), a condition where no sperm is present in semen, making natural conception impossible.

The AI system, SpermSearchAI, employs deep learning to assist embryologists during surgical sperm retrieval procedures. It instantly identifies viable sperm in tissue samples that are often missed under traditional microscopy. During a microsurgical testicular sperm extraction (microTESE), the AI detected sperm that had eluded manual observation, enabling successful intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

This achievement offers new hope to couples facing similar challenges, particularly those with NOA, where conventional methods frequently fail. Early clinical trials indicate that AI not only reduces search time but also increases success rates by improving accuracy in sperm detection.

The breakthrough positions Dubai as a global leader in advanced fertility treatments. With ongoing AI integration and research, specialists aim to transform assisted reproduction, providing more reliable solutions for complex infertility issues and expanding options for patients worldwide.
