What is Male Infertility?
The inability of a sexually mature male to impregnate a fertile female is known as male infertility. It is responsible for 40–50% of infertility in humans and approximately 7% of men are affected by it. Semen deficiency is a common cause of male infertility, and the quality of the semen is an indicator of male fertility. More recently, precise sperm studies that look at sperm components inside cells have been established helping a lot in the Male Infertility Treatment.

Male Infertility Test
Male Infertility Test is done to diagnose the cause of the problem which are:
- Semen Analysis
After that, a lab receives your semen to count the amount of sperm and check for anomalies in the morphology (or shape) and motility (or movement) of the sperm. - Scrotal Ultrasound
This test creates images inside your body using high-frequency sound waves. Your doctor can detect varicocele or other issues with the testicles and supporting tissues with the aid of a scrotal ultrasound. - Transrectal ultrasound
In your rectum, a tiny, lubricated wand is inserted. It enables your physician to examine your prostate and search for semen-transporting tube blockages. - Post-ejaculation urinalysis
Retrograde ejaculation, or the presence of sperm in your urine, is a sign that your sperm are going through your bladder rather than your penis during ejaculation.
