DESCRIPTION

Azoospermia is the medical term used when the semen contain no sperm during ejaculation.
It can be “obstructive” and non-obstructive, obstructive means there is a blockage that preventing sperm from entering the ejaculate, or “non-obstructive” means decreased sperm production by the testis. It is associated with male infertility.  It happens approx 1% of all men and 15% of infertile men.

CAUSES OF AZOOSPERMIA

Causes of obstructive azoospermia – Obstructions occur most commonly in the:

• Epididymis – The coiled tube structure on the back of each testicle where sperm matures.
• Vas deferens – Tube like structure that transports sperm from the epididymis.
• Ejaculatory duct – The tube from where sperm exit into the urethra and mix with fluid to form semen.
• Epididymis blockages – Several conditions can cause the blockage in the epididymis:

1. Infections 
2. Inflammation
3. Scrotal trauma/injury
4. Rare genetic conditions 

• Surgery on the vas deferens

1. During vasectomy surgeon cuts or clamps each vas deferens, stopping the flow of sperm. There are other conditions that have the same impact:
2. Trauma/injury
3. Previous surgery like hernia repair
4. Cystic fibrosis gene mutations

• Ejaculatory duct blockages
  some ejaculatory duct blockages are present at birth. Others develop later such as:

1. Infections
2. Trauma
3. Prior surgery
4. Endoscopic surgery 

• Causes of non-obstructive azoospermia
  There are numerous causes of non-obstructive azoospermia:

1. Genetics
2. Y chromosome deletion
