Couples presenting with infertility should be fiilly evaluated by specialists in reproductive medicine, in order to ensure effective and timely investigation, and appropriate treatment.

Analogous to the development of carbenoxolone to regulate 11(3-HSD, we can seek synthetic compounds that regulate specific types of 17(3-HSD, which may be useful in reproductive medicine and in treating cancers.

Biological answers to biological questions are, of course, given by Nature directly. Man may use the complex systems of Nature with the aim to correct a fault (as, e.g., was done by Robert Edwards and Patrick Steptoe [138] in reproductive medicine). Reproductive medicine cannot be discussed disregarding bioethical aspects [139]. The present authors are not competent to meet the bioethical requirements. For this reason, reproductive medicine is not further commented on.

Unmodified HA is used as an adjuvant for ophthalmic drug delivery and for enhancing the absorption of drugs and proteins by mucosal tissues. The efficacy of several steroidal and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs can be enhanced in the presence of HA. In reproductive medicine, HA improves...

This property is used to select viable spermatozoa and Improve artificial insemination and other in vitro fertilization methods.
