Instituto Bernabeu research aimed to determine if any ovarian stimulation factors can be linked to oocyte morphology and to the type of membrane breakage when intracytoplasmic spermatozoa injection (ICSI) is performed. This assisted reproduction technique is routinely used in in vitro fertilisation (IVF) laboratories. It has the huge advantage of providing a helping hand when male patients suffer from severe male factors and it stops sperm counts from being a limitation. However, the main disadvantage is that the results depend to a large degree on the operator performing the technique. Although specialists are currently able to perform the process securely, there are some variations in the results that they obtain. Differences between oocytes in ICSI are observed even when an egg donation programme is used.

Instituto Bernabeu in Cartagena is organising a scientific event to address progress in the treatment of uterine fibroids. The event will be held on Friday, 31^st January in the graduation room at the Polytechnic University in Cartagena. This is just one of many scientific events that the clinic regularly organises at its Cartagena branch. The purpose of the events is to improve knowledge of reproductive health.

Instituto Bernabeu is set to employ a new technique that helps women under 35 years of age to have children with their own ova. These women are otherwise compelled to turn to egg donation
