About Male Infertility Treatment

Male infertility treatment, managed by a urologist, is a comprehensive approach to diagnose and address the underlying causes of a man's inability to conceive. It begins with a detailed evaluation, including semen analysis, hormone testing, and imaging, to identify issues such as low sperm count, poor motility, or blockages. Treatment is highly personalized and may range from lifestyle modifications and medication to advanced surgical procedures like varicocele repair or sperm retrieval techniques. The goal is to improve natural fertility or retrieve viable sperm for use with assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like IVF or ICSI, offering couples a clear path toward achieving pregnancy.

Who is this surgery for?

  • Abnormal semen analysis results (low count, poor motility, abnormal morphology).
  • Diagnosed conditions such as varicocele, obstructive azoospermia, or ejaculatory duct obstruction.
  • Hormonal imbalances affecting sperm production (e.g., low testosterone, elevated prolactin).
  • Genetic disorders impacting fertility (e.g., Klinefelter syndrome, Y-chromosome microdeletions).
  • History of testicular injury, infection (like mumps orchitis), or prior surgeries (e.g., hernia repair).
  • Unexplained infertility after a complete female partner evaluation.

How to prepare

  • Undergo a thorough diagnostic workup, including semen analysis, blood tests for hormones, and a physical exam.
  • Provide a complete medical, surgical, and lifestyle history to the urologist.
  • For surgical procedures, follow pre-operative instructions such as fasting and stopping certain medications (e.g., blood thinners) as advised.
  • Adopt recommended lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, reducing alcohol, and maintaining a healthy weight.
  • Discuss all treatment options, success rates, and associated costs with the healthcare team.

Risks & possible complications

  • General surgical risks for invasive procedures: infection, bleeding, or adverse reaction to anesthesia.
  • Specific to surgeries: potential for pain, swelling, or bruising in the scrotal area; rare risk of testicular artery injury.

  • No guarantee of successful pregnancy even after treatment.

  • Keep the surgical area clean and dry; watch for signs of infection like increased redness, swelling, or fever.

PATIENT REVIEW

Saanvi Saxena, 34, is a software...

Saanvi Saxena, 34, is a software engineer who has been trying to conceive with her husband for three years. After initial fertility testing revealed her husband had a very low sperm count, they were referred to a urologist. The urologist diagnosed him with obstructive azoospermia, where sperm is produced but blocked from being ejaculated. The doctor recommended a procedure called Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA) to retrieve sperm directly from the epididymis for use with IVF. The minimally invasive procedure was performed under local anesthesia. Recovery involved a few days of mild soreness and swelling. The retrieval was successful, yielding viable sperm that was frozen. Saanvi felt a heavy mix of hope and anxiety before the procedure, fearing it might fail. After the successful retrieval, she felt a profound sense of relief and renewed optimism, feeling they had finally gained a tangible chance to build their family.
