Azoospermia – Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment

admin | 25 July, 2025

Types of Azoospermia:
There are two main types:

1. Obstructive Azoospermia:
   The sperm is produced in the testicles, but it cannot come out due to a blockage in the tubes.

2. Non-Obstructive Azoospermia:
   The testicles do not produce sperm at all or produce very few sperm that don’t reach the semen.

Causes of Azoospermia:

• Hormonal problems

• Genetic disorders

• Infection or injury to testicles

• Previous surgeries

• Varicocele (enlarged veins in the scrotum)

• Blockage in the reproductive tract

How is Azoospermia Diagnosed?
Diagnosis includes:

• Semen Analysis: To check sperm count

• Blood Tests: To examine hormone levels

• Scrotal Ultrasound: To see any blockages or varicocele

• Testicular Biopsy: To check sperm production in testicles
