That infertility is primarily a “problem” that women face is a misconception. Male infertility affects just as many couples as female infertility. In 25% of couples seeking treatment, more than one factor is involved in their infertility.
If your wife is not pregnant after a year of unprotected sex, or if you have concerns about your fertility, we recommend that you visit a male infertility treatment Pakistan specialist as soon as possible. Especially if you experience the following problems:
-
Any problem related to sexual function, erection ejaculation problems, or low libido.
-
If you have pain in the testicles.
-
If you notice a lump or if your testicular area is swollen.
-
If you have a history of problems with sex, the testicles, or the prostate.
-
If you have had surgery on your reproductive organs.
-
If you are over 40 years old.
The causes of infertility in men are:
-
A problem with testicular production or sperm.
-
No sperm ( azoospermia ), a condition in which no sperm are found in the semen due to poor testicular function or obstruction of the male reproductive tract. It is the most challenging male infertility condition to manage.
-
A blockage or absence of the sperm duct (vas deferens) of the testicles.
-
A varicocele is a dilated vein in the scrotum.
-
Hormonal imbalance.
-
Lack of sperm mobility or function.
-
Previous injuries or health factors.
-
Ejaculation disorders.
-
Therapy for tumors and cancer (chemotherapy, radiation, aggressive surgery).
-
Other conditions such as chromosomal abnormalities, old age, stress, sexually transmitted diseases, obesity, smoking, illegal drugs, alcoholism, trauma, radiation, and exposure to toxic chemicals.
To identify male infertility, we analyze a semen sample for sperm volume, sperm concentration, percentage of actively moving sperm (motility), and the number of typically shaped sperm (morphology). A DNA fragmentation test will provide us with valuable information. It is not very common but sometimes it is recommended to also test the man’s hormones.
Men with hereditary abnormalities
Recent molecular genetic studies suggest that unexplained male infertility may be due to underlying genetic conditions. At Fertility Center Lahore, we offer advanced genetic evaluation for infertile men. This evaluation includes a blood test for karyotype analysis to evaluate chromosomal abnormalities, a Y chromosome microdeletion test, and a CFTR mutation screening to identify cystic fibrosis or related conditions. Our andrologists/urologists and geneticists provide professional counseling to all couples before and after genetic screening to help alleviate concerns about their overall reproductive health and the health of their future children.
Men with spinal cord injury or ejaculation disorders
Men with spinal cord injuries or other neurological disorders may have problems with their sexual function, especially with the ejaculation of semen. We offer special options to obtain sperm for assisted reproduction, such as ejaculation by microstimulation, electroejaculation, and percutaneous needle aspiration of sperm on an outpatient basis.
Male Infertility Treatment
If male infertility is diagnosed by semen analysis, various treatments are required, such as medication, ART, ICSI, use of donor sperm, and surgery.
Medication. Hormonal imbalance can affect sperm development and can often be successfully treated with medication.
