It is used in cases of absence of sperm, but in the presence of a partner with good ovarian function and patency of the fallopian tubes. The technique is similar to Level I homologous MAP but donor sperm are used for insemination.
Level II Homologous MAP
Second level homologous MAP is indicated in cases of sterility due to alterations of the fallopian tubes, age of the female partner over 40 years, serious alterations in the quality of the seminal fluid, repeated failures of first level homologous MAP. It consists of intense hormonal stimulation of the ovary (lasting 10-14 days), followed by...
