Patient's question:
My husband came over last night to chat with me. We talked about how we've been married for three years, but we haven't had any children yet. He's very worried about not being able to pass on his lineage. He said it's not my problem, but his own. He feels he's infertile, that he doesn't have sperm, and he's embarrassed to talk about this with others. He hopes I can support him in getting treatment.Doctor's answer:
Hello, obstructive azoospermia can be treated with procedures such as vasovasostomy, epididymovasostomy, artificial varicocele setting, epididymal sperm retrieval, transurethral incision, and others, depending on the specific condition. In cases of primary testicular dysfunction accompanied by varicocele, varicocelectomy should be performed. For non-obstructive azoospermia, if it is due to endocrine abnormalities such as pituitary gonadotropin secretion disorders, treatments such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and gonadotropin therapy, as well as testosterone supplementation, can be used. Now, you are going to support him bravely in accepting treatment, and I believe your husband will definitely get better.
