Male Infertility (click for worldwide facilities list): Nearly 90% of all infertility cases, both male and female factor, are overcome through treatment, including surgical and medical techniques. About 40 percent of infertility is caused by problems with the man's sperm, either due to low sperm count or poor sperm quality where sperm do not move well or are misshapen. Male infertility may result from hormone disorders, illness, or injury, as well as sexual dysfunction.
Male infertility diagnosis involves a semen analysis, physical exam, and medical history. Fertility specialists can help determine the cause for male infertility
Male infertility can be treated successfully in more than half of all cases. There are three categories of treatment for male infertility: assisted reproduction, drug therapy, and surgery.
Assisted reproduction therapy includes methods to improve erectile dysfunction, induce ejaculation, obtain sperm, and inseminate an egg.
Electroejaculation, and sperm retrieval are two procedures done under local anesthesia. They take usually take about 30 minutes, and may cause some pain and swelling.
Sperm washing isolates and prepares the healthiest sperm for insemination. The process separates sperm from white blood cells and fatty acids (prostaglandins) in the semen that may hinder sperm motility. It also concentrates sperm, which increases the chance for conception. Sperm retrieved by MESA, PESA, or TESE may be used in in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) may be used with immotile sperm during in vitro fertilization. Using a tiny glass needle, one sperm is injected directly into a retrieved mature egg. The egg is incubated and transferred to the uterus.
Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) This procedure is recommended for couples with unexplained fertility problems and normal reproductive anatomy. Mature eggs and prepared sperm are combined in a syringe and injected into the fallopian tube using laparascopy. Embryos that result from this procedure naturally descend into the uterus for implantation.
Drug therapy for male infertility includes medications to improve sperm production, treat hormonal dysfunction, cure infections that compromise sperm, and fight sperm antibodies.
Surgery for male infertility is performed to treat reproductive tract obstruction and varicocele. Vasoepididymostomy is a microsurgical procedure that corrects obstruction in the coiled tube that connects the testes with the vas deferens (epididymis). Obstructions commonly result from STDs and also include cysts and tubal closure (atresia), which is usually genetic. Vericocelectomy, the removal of a varicocele from the testes, often results in increased sperm count.
Alternative Treatments for male infertility include naturopathic treatments hich focus on improving sperm quantity, sperm quality, and overall male reproductive health, nutrition since nutritional deficiencies can impair hormone function, inhibit sperm production, and contribute to the production of abnormal sperm, supplements which may increase sperm count and/or motility, and herbal medicine.
