Can azoospermia be cured by natural treatment or food?

healthtap.com — “There is no proof that any food or natural treatment or even medicine can increase sperm production and pregnancy in partners of azospermic men. The most effective treatment is surgical sperm harvest and using these sperm for IVF with ICSI. Sometimes though sperm are not found in the testes or its ducts. Some genetic factors that lead to azospermia should be investigated firstView full resource at healthtap.com

A test to predict breast cancer many years before the disease is diagnosed

news-medical.net — “Ultimately the findings, in the journal Cancer Research, could lead to a simple blood test to screen women, they say. The test looks for how genes are altered by environmental factors like alcohol and hormones - a process known as epigenetics. One in five women is thought to have such a genetic “switch” that doubles breast cancer risk say researchers.View full resource at news-medical.net

Everything I Didn't Learn From Taking A Personal Genome Test | The Awl

theawl.com — “It took us ten years and $3 billion to map the human genome, and when the first working draft appeared in 2000, it came with lots of predictions: We were going to crack the genetic code for disease, predict heart attacks and cure cancer. Twelve years later, that isn't how it worked out. Instead of dramatic scientific breakthroughs, the most successful outgrowth has been a crop of VC-fueled personal genetics companies. The concept is simple: for a fee, they’ll tell you everything science knoView full resource at theawl.com

First blood test to diagnose major depression in teens

sciencedaily.com — “Scientists have developed the first blood test to diagnose major depression in teens, a breakthrough approach that allows an objective diagnosis by measuring a specific set of genetic markers found in a patient's blood. The test also is the first to identify subtypes of depression, raising hopes for individualized treatment. The current method of diagnosing depression is subjective.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
