Patient's question:
Can infertility caused by testicular dysgenesis with very little semen be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Azoospermia accounts for the majority of infertility cases. A normal semen sample contains more than 20 million sperm per mL. If the sperm count is less than 20 million per mL, it is considered azoospermia. Between 5 to 10 million per mL, it is moderate azoospermia; less than 5 million per mL, it is severe azoospermia. Common causes of azoospermia include: (1) Congenital testicular dysgenesis or cryptorchidism leading to impaired spermatogenesis (2) Varicocele, hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis (3) Inflammation of the reproductive tract (4) Immunosuppression and endocrine disorders (5) Chromosomal abnormalities, etc. Since the causes vary, the treatment methods also differ. It is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for examination. Based on the results, treatment should be guided by a doctor to address the specific condition. Wishing you good health!
