Predicting a Successful Sperm Retrieval

The Y Factor helps men improve fertility outcomes with advanced sperm retrieval guided by key clinical indicators.
By - Russel H Williams, MD

Are you thinking about getting a sperm retrieval for your fertility goals?

Pre-surgical clinical indicators can be used to access the likelihood of successful sperm retrieval in men with severe poor sperm production resulting in a zero sperm count.

Your reproductive urologist will use testicular volume, FSH and LH blood levels, testosterone levels, genetic blood results, and whether you have a varicocele (enlarged testicular veins) to assess your likelihood of having sperm extracted during your sperm retrieval surgery.

Sperm surgically retrieved can be used with in vitro fertilization for a successful pregnancy and is now the preferred method for Dr. Russel Williams when men come in for fertility after a vasectomy or men facing other fertility issues.

Dr. Russel Williams, MD is a reproductive urologist at The Y Factor discourages a diagnostic testing biopsy prior to sperm retrieval because it creates unwanted inflammation.
