Fertility is a shared process, and the study of the male factor is an essential part of reproductive diagnosis. In fact, approximately 40 to 50% of infertility cases have some component related to the male partner. <\/p>

For this reason, a comprehensive fertility assessment must also include the male study, as identifying possible alterations can help guide treatment and optimise the chances of pregnancy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Urology and andrology are the specialities responsible for evaluating male reproductive health, analysing aspects related to semen quality, hormonal alterations or conditions affecting the reproductive system.<\/p>

At Viamed Fertility Institute, we work in coordination with male fertility specialists to offer a multidisciplinary, individualised approach adapted to each case.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Andrology is the medical branch specialising in male reproductive health and forms part of the field of urology.<\/p>

During the male fertility study, the specialist evaluates different factors that may influence a man’s reproductive capacity.<\/p>

The male factor in infertility<\/h2>

Although infertility has traditionally been associated more frequently with women, we now know that the male factor has a very significant role.<\/p>

For this reason, the study of the male partner should be carried out from the earliest stages of reproductive assessment.<\/p>

Azoospermia and testicular biopsy<\/h2>

Azoospermia is a situation in which no sperm cells are detected in the semen.<\/p>

When this occurs, the specialist may broaden the study to determine the cause and assess the possible options available.<\/p>

In certain cases, a testicular biopsy may be indicated. This is a procedure in which a small sample of testicular tissue is obtained to check for the presence of sperm cells.<\/p>

When viable sperm cells are identified, they can later be used in assisted reproduction treatments such as in vitro fertilisation.<\/p>

These procedures are performed by specialists in urology.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A multidisciplinary approach to the comprehensive study of infertility<\/h2>

Male fertility is an essential part of any complete reproductive study.<\/p>

For this reason, at Viamed Fertility Institute we work in coordination between specialists in assisted reproduction, andrology, endocrinology and other medical areas in order to offer a global assessment.<\/p>

This multidisciplinary model makes it possible to identify male factors, broaden the study when necessary and design strategies adapted to each clinical situation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
