Patient's question:
During the pre-marital thorough examination, azoospermia was detected, and the choice was made to undergo a testicular biopsy. I would like to ask how the thorough examination is conducted and approximately how much it costs.Doctor's answer:
If it is azoospermia, generally it requires a testicular biopsy rather than a testicular puncture. If it comes to the cost of a testicular puncture, it is usually between hundreds to thousands of yuan, and the charging standards are related to the local economic level and the level of the hospital. The main purpose is to pierce and check if there are sperm-producing cells and sperm inside the testes. If sperm can be obtained through testicular puncture, then the next step is to undergo IVF. This proves that the azoospermia is caused by a blocked vas deferens.
