There are two types of Azoospermia
1.Obstructive Azoospermia
2. Non Obstructive Azoospermia

In Obstructive Azoospermia, sperm production is normal but there is blockage in the passage.
In Non Obstructive Azoospermia, there is problem with production of sperms.

You have to undergo some Blood tests now. FSH,LH, Testosterone
These hormonal tests will tell us the type of Azoospermia .

Hi,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic.

I suggest you to get your semen analysis done once more and confirm azoospermia. Also get testosterone levels. If it is there then you may take tablet containing lycopene, co Q, zinc etc .

After taking for 3 month repeat semen analysis. Also quit smoking and drinking, don't ware tight underwear, reduce weight if you are over weight.

If improvement is there then continue treatment for 6 months and check again. If some heathy sperms present then you may go for in vitro fertilization.

If there in no improvement then you need to go for testicular biopsy study. In that also no spermatozoa then you need to go for donor sperms.

Hope I have answered your query.

Regards
Dr.Deepika Patil
