Subjects with XY males on karyotyping and with a spectrum of phenotypes, like hypospadias,
azoospermia, gynecomastia and ambiguous genitalia, were included, while all previously-diagnosed cases of AIS and 5-ARD deficiency on treatment were excluded.
On the other hand,
azoospermia is detected in 10-15% of infertile patients (2).
For instance, more than half of men with testicular cancer present clinically with oligospermia or
azoospermia prior to treatment (Hendry et al., 1983; Meirow & Schenker, 1995; van Casteren et al., 2010).
Women whose husbands had severe oligoasthenoteratospermia,
azoospermia, or cryptozoospermia were excluded.
It is the most common aberration of sex chromosome after Klinefelter syndrome (47, XXY),[1],[2] as found in 1 out of 1000 male live births.[3] The 47, XYY syndrome could show different influences on men's sperm counts, ranging from normal to even
azoospermia.[4] For those who have difficulty achieving pregnancy, the treatment of in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) with medical genetics counseling seems to be a good choice.
The testes of men without
azoospermia have small amounts of bacteria belonging to four main groups, the scientists found.
Likewise, the risk of
azoospermia in those aged 50 to 59 years was higher among the overweight patients and among obese patients when compared with normal weight men in the same age category.
For women with unexplained infertility, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) averaged 1.95 mIU/ mL (95% confidence interval, 1.54-2.61), compared with 1.66 mIU /mL for the group of women with severe male factor infertility, such as severe oligospermia or
azoospermia (95% CI, 1.25-2.17; P = .003).
Micro-dissection TESE (MicroTESE) is an invasive procedure utilised to locate sperm in men with non-obstructive
azoospermia or severe testicular failure.
The rarity of our case lies in the synchronous presence of bilaterally hypoplastic seminal vesicles (SV), varicocele, and
azoospermia, extending the presenting spectrum of type III testicular ectopia which currently includes SV aplasia and SV cystic malformation [7].
Our institutional incidence of mild asthenoteratozoospermia was 65%, mild oligoasthenozoospermia was 13%, severe oligoasthenozoospermia was 16%, mild asthenozoospermia was 3% and
azoospermia was 0.001% and normozoospermia was 3%.
