Azoospermia or low sperm counts in semen account for about 20% of the male infertility cases. Another main cause of male infertility commonly includes poor sperm quality, or both. Male hypogonadism is another medical condition where the body is unable to produce enough testosterone hormone which plays key-role during masculine growth & development at puberty. Several other cases of male infertility are caused by a range of conditions including genetic defects & anatomical problems. Abnormal sperm shape & intense or long-term exposure to various toxins, chemicals & medications may also be contributing factors for male infertility problems.

How is Male Infertility Treated

Treatments of male infertility primarily address underlying medical conditions contributing to infertility in men. After conducting male fertility tests including semen analysis, treatments may include drug therapy which is used to treat hormonal disorders or surgery procedures like varicoceles & correction of any other obstructions within the reproductive tract.

Designed as an important part of the male reproductive system, it can cause extreme discomfort in diseased condition. Partial or complete removal of prostate through surgery is called Prostatectomy. General reasons for surgery include cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia. Other less typical reasons for prostate surgery in India can be associated with urinary problems or recurring prostate bleeding.

Factors triggering risk of Prostate Cancer include family history, race & old age. Most, almost 99% of cases are found to occur in individuals above the age of 50. Other factors causing Prostate Cancer are associated with diets high in red meat, processed meat, milk products or low consumption of certain vegetables. Largely diagnosed by biopsy, methods like medical imaging may be conducted to find out if cancer has spread to other parts of body. Prostate Cancer treatment in India , just like other male infertility treatments, are cost-considerate & one of the best in global context.

Prostatitis

Prostatosis or Prostatitis is an inflamed condition of prostate gland. Microscopic inflammation of tissue of prostate gland associated with an appropriate response to infection. However, Prostatitis is also found to occur in cases even in absence of infections.

prostate artery embolization (PAE) is one of the latest surgical procedures that help treat urinary symptoms associated with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) in the prostate gland. It has the added advantage in which the sexual activity of the person does not get affected in any wayA benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) is also known as an enlarged prostate gland which is a common non-cancerous disorder usually seen in men who have reached their senior age (60 years and above).

Signs And Symptoms of Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH)

The most commonly seen symptoms of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) are:

• Frequent urination (especially at night)
• Urgent urination feeling
• Urine dispensing in a dribble or leaks often
• Weak and slow urine flow

What is Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE)?

The procedure of prostate artery embolization (PAE) is one of the latest surgical procedures that help treat urinary symptoms associated with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) in the prostate gland. It has the added advantage in which the sexual activity of the person does not get affected in any way.

Embolization (PAE) How is Prostate Artery surgery performed?

A prostate artery embolization surgery is a minimally invasive type of surgery. This embolization surgery requires the doctor to administer painkillers through an IV (intra-venous) method to alleviate pain and does not require any kind of anesthesia.

The actual surgery involves making a pinhole incision in the groin area above the prostate gland and the use of a small catheter which is inserted in an artery connected to the prostate gland. The catheter is entered into the artery supplying blood to the prostate after which tiny particles are released into the bloodstream through this catheter to help block blood supply to the prostate. This blocking of the artery is known as ‘embolization’. This procedure is repeated on the other artery as well.

Epididymitis

This medical condition is characterized by pain & discomfort of Epididymitis which is the curved structure located beneath the testicle & where matured sperms are stored. The pain is often accompanied by inflammation causing redness & warmth in scrotum. This is the most frequent cause of scrotal pain among adults. Epididymitis swelling may stretch along inguinal canal often appearing similar to inguinal hernia.

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

ED Problems or Sexual Dysfunction is male impotence characterized by inability of male reproductive organ to develop or maintain erection of penis. Penile erection is a hydraulic effect during sexual activity. It allows blood to enter penis & remain within the sponge-like bodies. Generally, erections are resulting from sexual arrival; however most important organic causes of Erectile Dysfunction are results of neurological problems, hormonal insufficiencies, drug side-effects, diabetes & cardiovascular diseases. ED poses severe psychological consequences especially concerning relationships. Treatments for ED in India have high success rates & are cost-considerate like most other healthcare solutions.

Hydrocele

Hydrocele is slow pathological accumulation of serous fluids around testes. Fairly common among adult males living in hot climates, it is primarily caused by impaired re-absorption. Hydrocele can also result from a plugged inguinal lymphatic system in the region. 

Varicocele

This condition is abnormal enlargement of pampiniform venous plexus in scrotum which normally drain testicles. Defective one-way valves in blood vessels coursing through inguinal canal forming spermatic cord on way to testes are one of the main causes of Varicocele. Dilation of testicular veins caused due to compression in nearby structures is found to be leading factor of Varicocele. Identified as one of the main reasons for male infertility, Varicocele can be effectively treated through surgical or non-surgical treatments.

Vasectomy

Considered a permanent contraception method of birth control, Vasectomy is a surgical procedure for male sterilization. Both male vas deferens, are cut, clamped or sealed to prevent sperms from entering the seminal stream. Vasectomy is primarily designed to prevent release of sperm into semen during ejaculation. Therefore as a result female eggs cannot be fertilized even after unprotected intercourse. Although testicles still continue to produce sperms, they are eventually reabsorbed in body. As these tubes are minimally invasive in nature blocked before prostate & seminal vesicles, almost the same amount of fluid is ejaculated during intercourse. No-Scalpel Vasectomy technique is another variation of the above operation.

Vasectomy Reversal

Vasectomy Reversal or Vasovasostomy reconnects vas deferens tubes which were initially cut-off during vasectomy operation. Usually performed as an outpatient procedure under spinal or general anesthesia, success usually depends upon the amount of time that has elapsed between vasectomy & reversal. Most often over time, several additional blockages are formed while few men also develop antibodies to their own sperms. Vasovasostomy surgery is additionally complicated when blockage between epididymis & vas deferens also requires correction. Usually requiring about 2-4 hours for surgical procedure, patients may expect to go back home the same day. Pain after surgery is generally mild to moderate, while you can resume normal sexual activity within 3 weeks. Vasectomy Reversal is meant to ensure that you can now revert to be fertile once again.

Penectomy & Orchiectomy

Penectomy is removal of penis through surgery for personal or medical reasons. Some main reasons for undergoing Penectomy include cancer which necessitates complete or part removal of penis, botched circumcisions, Fournier gangrene or for trans women seeking sex reassignment surgery.

Orchiectomy, also known as Orchi or Orchidectomy is another surgical procedure wherein one or both testicles are removed. Bilateral Orchiectomy involves removal of both testicles is also a form of surgical castration. Usually performed under epidural anesthesia, there are three main types of this procedure known as Simple Orchiectomy, Subcapsular Orchiectomy & Inguinal Orchiectomy. Most of these surgeries take about 30 to 60 minutes for operation.

Penile Implant

Penile Implants are devices surgically placed inside penis which enable patients cope with erectile dysfunction (ED) so as to get an erection. Typically recommended after other treatments for ED have failed, these implants are also useful in treating Peyronie’s disease causing painful erections & severe cases of scarring inside penis leading to curvature. The two main types of penile implants are the semirigid & the inflatable. Each works differently & you doctor will let you know the pros & cons they carry. However, Penile Implants are not for everyone. Your surgeon will caution you if you are having a situational ED, or urinary tract or pulmonary infections, or dermatitis, skin lesions, or wounds on penis or scrotum. Though these implants allow men get an erection, they do not increase sensation or sexual desire in any way.

Prostatectomy

Prostatectomy is a traditional open surgical procedure normally employed for part or all of the male prostate gland. Generally performed for benign conditions causing urinary retention & for prostate as well as other cancers found within the pelvic region, Prostatectomies are of two main types. Simple Prostatectomy which is also known as Subtotal Prostatectomy involves removing only a part of the prostate gland & are typically only done in benign conditions. Radical Prostatectomy involves removal of entire prostate gland including seminal vesicles & vas deferens & is largely performed in cases of malignant cancer.

Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy (LRP)

Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy or LRP is one of the latest types of radical prostatectomy operation for prostate cancer. Without involving any large incisions, this minimally invasive procedure relies on modern technology including fiber-optics & miniaturization. While physically removing the entire prostate, LRP ensures to reconstruct urethra directly with the bladder. LRP makes no use of retractors, nor does it require parting open & stretching of the abdominal wall as in the traditional open surgery. There is very little bleeding with LRP, which means a stable operative course with less need of transfusions thereby reduced risk of cardiovascular complications, fatigue, anemia, infections & allergic reactions.
