What is Aspermia?
Aspermia is a medical condition characterized by the complete absence of semen during ejaculation. It is different from azoospermia, where semen is present but lacks sperm. Aspermia is a rare condition but can significantly impact a man’s fertility and emotional well-being.
Causes of Aspermia
Aspermia can arise due to various physical, medical, or psychological factors. Here are some of the most common causes:
Obstruction in the Reproductive Tract
Blockages in the vas deferens or ejaculatory ducts can prevent semen from being expelled.
Retrograde Ejaculation
Semen flows backward into the bladder instead of exiting through the urethra. This condition is often caused by diabetes, spinal cord injuries, or prostate surgeries.
Nerve Damage
Nerve damage due to spinal cord injuries, surgeries, or conditions like multiple sclerosis can result in aspermia.
Hormonal Imbalance
Low levels of testosterone or other hormonal disorders can hinder semen production.
Infections and Inflammation
Chronic infections or inflammation of the reproductive organs, such as the prostate or seminal vesicles, can lead to aspermia.
Side Effects of Medications
Certain medications, such as those for high blood pressure, cancer, or depression, can interfere with ejaculation.
Psychological Factors
Stress, anxiety, or past trauma can also contribute to aspermia in some cases.
Diagnosing Aspermia
At KGN Test Tube Baby Hospital, we follow a comprehensive approach to diagnose aspermia. Diagnosis typically involves:
Medical History Review
Understanding the patient’s medical, surgical, and sexual history to identify potential causes.
Physical Examination
Checking for any physical abnormalities in the reproductive organs.
Semen Analysis
Evaluating the presence or absence of semen and sperm in the ejaculate.
Ultrasound and Imaging Tests
Identifying blockages or structural abnormalities in the reproductive system.
Hormonal Testing
Measuring testosterone, FSH, and LH levels to assess hormonal imbalances.
Post-Ejaculate Urinalysis
Detecting semen in the urine to diagnose retrograde ejaculation.
Treatment Options for Aspermia
At KGN Test Tube Baby Hospital, Latur, we offer personalized treatment plans for aspermia based on the underlying cause.
Surgical Treatments
Surgery to remove blockages or repair structural issues in the reproductive tract.
Medication
Hormonal therapy or other medications to address underlying conditions like infections or retrograde ejaculation.
Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART)
Techniques like IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) or ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) can help extract sperm directly from the testicles to achieve pregnancy.

Addressing factors like stress, diet, and overall health can also improve outcomes.
