Overview
What is Azoospermia?
Azoospermia is the complete absence of sperm in the ejaculated semen. It affects approximately 1% of all men and is responsible for 10–15% of male infertility cases. There are two types: obstructive azoospermia (sperm are produced but cannot be released due to a blockage) and non-obstructive azoospermia (inadequate sperm production in the testes).
Fatherhood is Still Possible
At Iswarya Fertility, our male fertility specialists perform surgical sperm retrieval procedures (TESA, PESA, Micro-TESE) to extract sperm directly from the testes or epididymis. Retrieved sperm are used with ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) to fertilise eggs, achieving fatherhood for men previously told it was impossible.
