The partnership comes as more people take a proactive approach to family planning, seeking information about their health, fertility and future children earlier — helping parents decide whether they should conceive naturally or consider alternate paths to conception. Empowering More Confident Family Planning Decisions Nucleus and Legacy have collectively helped tens of thousands of people better understand their fertility and health before starting a family. Legacy has performed more than 75,000 sperm analyses, while Nucleus has served thousands of patients with advanced genetic testing. <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=csTpQouTOVYcp-AIQ4c5CvoFk1tmtfU4XXr87KQcVd3z4y9yUNiK-G75FqIAQFXQ11_y-dN2ule5yV1X8_GIP5DUUUk5yCiCSeRdEMu3GFuRwi2Ie6e_kxXP8zAc4V9xTbilNNKDqMgaOH5akl1TmJNcRAXbbpvPQd-kFaGTmdVI2N7M5tIMaEZ90j2hH1YYHqgVMFUoK7M3io5YYyENi2IRblrjgf5mJzDwAkCuL-aSkNWJkLXLZNRJpwgc2BQ3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Nucleus Preview</a> uses a cheek swab from both partners to analyze more than 2,000 genetic factors, including reproductive health insights, inherited conditions, and common disease risk. Legacy’s at-home testing analyzes sperm across factors that can affect fertility, with the option to freeze and preserve sperm for future use. The services connect two traditionally siloed insights important for those considering parenthood: sperm health and the risk of passing down genetic diseases. “People often ask us if IVF is right for them, and the decision typically comes down to three factors: egg quality, sperm quality, and genetics,” said Kian Sadeghi, founder and CEO of Nucleus Genomics. “Partnering with Legacy brings two crucial factors together, empowering patients to choose the path to parenthood that best suits them.” Male Fertility is Part of the Health Picture Male reproductive health contributes to up to 40% of infertility cases1, yet has traditionally received less attention in family planning. Sperm health can also reveal more than the ability to conceive naturally. Male infertility has been associated with higher risks of heart disease, diabetes and hypertension, as well as testicular and prostate cancer2. That connection between reproductive and broader health is central to both companies. Nucleus uses genetics to help people understand risks that may affect their own health and their future children; Legacy uses male fertility to provide another view into lifelong health before conception. “Every family deserves the opportunity to make informed decisions about their fertility and the health of their future children,” said Khaled Kteily, Legacy founder and CEO. “Together with Nucleus, we can help prospective parents and their care teams better understand sperm quality and genetic factors that may influence IVF outcomes, while advancing a future where reproductive care is increasingly personalized, proactive, and centered on healthier outcomes for families.” Continued Growth Across Fertility Care Nucleus’ partnership with Legacy comes amid the company’s continued growth across fertility care, including recent partnerships with <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=CmtIb7RKmpnn5dmSLJiqBPCte8ybnB7zRMTvyHMh5mof7mKnIUZftPDpQUNXnUsXerstvPsZVZjOmcDPO8hBbXNXL1LihNvZz98iyk55XUS5b6r60RtBjVTfI6ElkEDt1X3Sf8Ace_ua1QC5eYm5c3aQZbUqpaBWzw-ylATIvnWYas0kCpt5kFz0RAOuzBu1bA8YKQ08vgLRLPWo2mZl4pxKFb-4ZjOOPaoxkdKMv25aWhSmA3EK1EVDXabOBEqS17hDnHN8sXjSfUHORGLEO9KEM8-VGDnJ_BVygn1UmrVhm-9IqHpEFqOEsjJGnL08" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Southern California Reproductive Center</a> and <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=Q_R8lRq5mZ_C5_z4TI6Z7fsGGpRkSVdhjqQDhHRoo58y49NmzfYVY-IP0pgT75H2IZTH4W1cUHthL4DLxpOS5ke366jMqpoPzai82OIO8FZZYOaATZIESQgA0NLU8VPtSuFxk6GY24DHEVni5v24etdJtuuuGXM3e5owuW0IVVR4gYmr1yhMw46WwtvqXMVnW8SZ0D3r50INDFz5d60acnrmhyDXIRKcX9j5NUAcICoWrQY9e7gIbsgw4qmtVhxbpOtYaGTJ-870MvaRAAHGTpLsC3oW1ipND3gUyGAs2ZYBjz84iPoGCNJF5yYX46Sk" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Fertility Institute of Hawaii</a>, as Nucleus Embryo, its advanced embryo analysis, increasingly becomes a new standard of care in IVF.
