Feeling lost after "Unexplained Infertility" or Recurrent Loss? You are not alone. 💔

For too long, the critical conversation around male fertility has been sidelined. But thanks to incredible advocates like Shaun Greenaway, safe spaces are finally opening up for men! This shift is long overdue.

We teamed up with The Fertility Podcast and Natalie Silverman to tackle the missing piece of the puzzle: S***m DNA Fragmentation (SDF).

If you've been told your semen analysis is 'normal' yet are still experiencing:
• Unexplained Infertility
• Failed IVF/ICSI Cycles
• Recurrent Pregnancy Loss
..then SDF testing could be the answer you've been searching for.

Examen’s Medical Advisor, Lalana Songra, explains why early, equal diagnosis for men is vital, not just emotionally, but medically. We cover actionable steps men can take right now to improve s***m health and how better testing leads to more personalised treatment.

Let's normalise this conversation for better outcomes and clarity. Listen now - it might be the information you need to move forward! 👇

What might be hidden beneath a 'normal' semen analysis (SA) result?

New research* reveals that men who receive a 'normal' SA result are less likely to make lifestyle changes, despite hidden s***m DNA fragmentation (SDF) damage caused by factors like smoking, stress, and poor diet.

This damage can impact fertility, miscarriage risk, and even a child's future health.

Examen’s Exact® & Extend® tests measure SDF damage to provide a clearer picture of your fertility.

A 'normal’ SA isn’t always enough – visit examenlab.com to learn all about measuring what really matters.

What do couples really know about male fertility testing❔

We ran a poll & here’s what we found:

🧬 Over half of respondents had only used Semen Analysis (SA) testing to determine male fertility

🧬 However over half of couples also didn’t know that the SA test doesn’t check s***m DNA damage

🧬 The vast majority - 9 out of 10 - said they would invest in more advanced testing if they knew DNA damage was linked to miscarriage or failed IVF/ICSI cycles

Knowledge is power - especially on the path to parenthood!

S***m DNA fragmentation testing goes beyond the basics to uncover hidden causes of male fertility issues, and Examen offer the most advanced SDF tests available.

We won!!! 🎉 Last night the team attended the Life Sciences Industry Awards and won the Diagnostic Excellence Award 👏🏻

What a great recognition for our groundbreaking work in male fertility diagnostics following the launch of our new Extend fertility test!

We have exciting news! Examen has been shortlisted as a FINALIST within the Diagnostic Excellence category at the Life Science Awards 2025! 🏆✨

We are thrilled to be recognised for our groundbreaking work in male fertility diagnostics following the launch of our new Extend fertility test earlier this year.

Why Extend is a game changer:

✅ Exclusive focus on double-stranded s***m DNA fragmentation (dsSDF) - the Extend is unique in being able to measure dsSDF - the DNA damage most strongly linked to miscarriage and failed fertility treatments.
✅ Proven clinical impact - High dsSDF is associated with increased risk of fertility treatment failure and male-factor miscarriage, especially as the egg’s ability to repair s***m DNA damage declines with female age.
✅ Addressing Recurrent Miscarriage - RM represents a significant concern in reproductive medicine for couples and its impact on patient psychology, often triggering associated stress, depression and anxiety.
✅ Personalised treatment - Extend helps uncover the often overlooked paternal factor to identify male-factor causes of infertility, enabling clinicians to make more informed decisions and improve patient outcomes.

A huge thank you to the Life Science Awards - and best of luck to all the amazing nominees across every category at the awards ceremony in Dublin on Thursday 5th June!
