Result of semen analysis: Azoospermia. What are the common causes of azoospermia? Can it still be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Azoospermia often refers to conditions such as non-ejaculation and retrograde ejaculation, which result in similar outcomes [1], including congenital absence or obstruction of the seminal vesicles [2], or insufficient testosterone production due to testicular or pituitary dysfunction [3]. Medication-induced azoospermia can occur from taking anti-androgen drugs [4]. Post-prostatectomy, poor bladder neck closure may lead to retrograde ejaculation. It is essential to actively seek medical examination to confirm the cause and receive targeted treatment. Male patients can complement professional treatment with dietary therapy in daily life. It is crucial to avoid excessive hunger or fullness and never overeat or binge on food during daily meals.
