Diagnosis and Treatment of Male Infertility
Male infertility is a complex issue affecting millions of couples worldwide. It is estimated that male factors contribute to about 50% of all infertility cases. Understanding the root cause is the first step toward effective treatment.
Common Causes
- Varicocele: A swelling of the veins that drain the testicle, which is the most common reversible cause of male infertility.
- Hormonal Imbalances: Issues with testosterone or other hormones that regulate sperm production.
- Lifestyle Factors: Stress, obesity, and smoking can significantly impact sperm quality.
Micro-TESE and Advanced Retrieval
For severe cases where no sperm is found in the ejaculate (azoospermia), we utilize advanced surgical sperm retrieval techniques like Micro-TESE. By using a surgical microscope, we can identify healthy tissues in the testicles that are actively producing sperm.
Our approach combines medical management, lifestyle optimization, and surgical intervention to maximize the chances of conception.
