Intrauterine insemination, in-vitro fertilization, PESA, MESA, and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) are some of the treatment options available for infertile males.
This extraction technology is used to extract the sperm from the epididymis suffering from a low number of sperm (Azoospermia). It is a simple surgical procedure done under local anaesthesia to extract the sperm from the fine needle. This procedure doesn’t require one to incise the skin. The fluid is gently extracted from the fine needle out of the body, which is sent to the laboratory afterwards for processing.
To treat ovulatory dysfunction in females, specific medications are used to induce ovulation.
If the infertility is caused due to some infection such as chronic cervicitis or a vaginal infection, it is treated according to it. Tumours and other abnormal growths are treated surgically.
Assisted treatment technology is also used in treating infertility. It involves the manipulation of fertilisation of sperm and ovum outside the body for treating infertility.
Infertility is a stressed disease and involves many investigations. The treatment is exhausting too.
