Polyzoospermia: Can this
entity, albeit rare may be a cause of male factor subfertility ?? Prevalence of
Polyzoospermia in fertile and subfertile men in India?? Let us very briefly
recapitulate what is supposed to occur
in the sperm production factory. What’s wrong going on there in cases of polyzoospermia ??
We know that a primary spermatocyte is
transformed into two secondary spermatocytes during meiosis I - & these cells then in turn
are converted into (1N) spermatids during meiosis II To my knowledge, the errors of cell division occur here in cases of polyzoospermia. In such cases
which may yield polyzoospermia one primary
spermatocyte divides (meiotic) not into 2 cells but erratically to 3 or 4 sperms.(
? abnormal mood of gene controlled/
Growth factor related). As too many
daughter cells coming from each pri spermatocytes as such each sec sperm possesses
less amount of DNA/Mitochondria. This suboptimal
DNA content in cases of polyzoospermia is the possible explanation of male
factor subfertility or say early preg loss (failure to progress normally after fertilization-Early
embryonic demise) . As primary spermatocytes has fixed amount of DNA which is
meant for ideally for 2 Sec spermatocytes has now divided in 3 cells with so
less DNA per daughter cells.
What about women??As a
corollary in women too , such
erratic cell division may rarely which is expressed as polyovular
follicle when one D F exhibits two oocytes with a single Liq Folliculi
and two Cumulus !!!
In males such erratic division
of parent cells is expressly as Polyzoospermia and in women such erratic cell
division of parent cells may be exhibited by
Polyovular follicle which may —May be
a cause of MAMC twin!! Members pl opine. I am very old man with poor
memory at 76 yrs.
