In natural conception, the combination of sperm and egg is the foundation of life. However, in clinical practice, besides common ovulation disorders in women, many men also face the challenge of having no sperm. This raises a pressing question: does the absence of sperm mean losing the chance to become a father forever? With the development of IVF in the U.S. and Mexico and egg freezing in the U.S. and Mexico, the answer is no longer an absolute “no.”

 

To determine whether men with azoospermia can achieve parenthood through IVF-PGT, the first step is to confirm whether sperm cells still exist in the body. If three consecutive semen analyses show no sperm, doctors may proceed with testicular or epididymal aspiration to search for sperm. Medically, azoospermia falls into two categories. Primary azoospermia occurs when the testes have no ability to produce sperm, making IVF impossible. Obstructive azoospermia, however, is different: the testes can still produce sperm, but blockages in the ducts prevent it from being released. In such cases, sperm can often be retrieved through aspiration, then combined with IVF to achieve fertilization, offering families the possibility of a child.

 

A real case highlights this clearly. Mr. Huang, founder of an internet company, had been married for years but his wife could not conceive. After she underwent tests showing normal results, Mr. Huang was finally examined at the doctor’s suggestion. The diagnosis revealed obstructive azoospermia. Shocked and guilty, he struggled with how to tell his wife. Later, he learned of the expertise of Dr. Nathan Zhang from IVF USA and sought his help. After reviewing the case, Dr. Zhang recommended percutaneous epididymal aspiration to retrieve sperm, followed by IVF-PGT. He also advised lifestyle adjustments, including quitting smoking and reducing alcohol during the fertility process to improve sperm quality. Following this plan, the couple eventually welcomed a healthy baby.

 

This case reflects not only advances in medical technology but also renewed hope for many families. Today, with the increasing use of IVF and egg freezing in the U.S. and Mexico, even severe male infertility cases may find viable solutions. For families with foresight, egg freezing in the U.S. and Mexico is also a proactive choice—preserving fertility at the optimal age and later combining it with IVF-PGT to improve the chances of a successful pregnancy.

Throughout the journey of preparing for and achieving pregnancy, having a professional medical team and scientific planning is essential. Dr. Nathan Zhang, founder of IVF USA, has dedicated his career to reproductive medicine and has accumulated extensive experience. His team provides services such as U.S. IVF, U.S. egg freezing, and third-party reproductive assistance. IVF USA also established an early presence in Mexico and works closely with fertility specialists in Japan, Thailand, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. For those who wish to secure more possibilities for the future, the combination of medical innovation and informed choice offers greater confidence and peace of mind.
