What is Azoospermia?
Azoospermia is a condition when there is an absence of sperm in males. In this situation, there is no sperm found in the fluid on a routine analysis of semen. It is usually an unpleasant surprise for males, which leads to infertility. This condition is seen in 1% of all males & 15% of infertile males.

What are the Two Types of Azoospermia & its Causes?
Azoospermia is divided into two categories:
1) Obstructive Azoospermia:
In obstructive azoospermia, sperms are produced inside the testicles. Obstruction or blockage is seen in the reproductive tubing that prevents the sperm to flow outside the world. The causes of obstructive azoospermia can be congenital, genetic, or acquired.
Other causes are:-
- Vasectomy is a surgical procedure that interrupts the sperm ducts to stop the flow of sperm.
- Congenital conditions: In this situation, some men are born with missing vas deferens other men are born with a cyst in the prostate that creates a blockage in ejaculatory ducts.
- Infections: In this condition, infections of the testicles, prostate, or reproductive tract like epididymitis, prostatitis, orchitis, & venereal diseases like chlamydia take place. It can cause a blockage of the ejaculatory duct or small tubules of the epididymis.
- Surgical complications: The procedures that are performed during surgery on the urogenital organs or hernia repair cause scarring that results in blockage.
2) Non-Obstructive Azoospermia:
Non-obstructive Azoospermia is a condition, in which the tubes are open, there is no production or low level of sperm production. This level is too much low that the sperm is not able to make the way out of the testicle.
The causes of non-obstructive azoospermia is abnormalities with the reproductive hormones or the testicles that control the production of sperm. It can be congenital, genetic, or acquired.
- Genetic causes: The most common chromosomal problem that causes azoospermia in male is when there is an extra X chromosome (Klinefelter Syndrome). Another causes of azoospermia is deletion of Y-chromosome that is responsible for male characteristics. When one or more genes are deleted in the chromosomes it results in azoospermia. Most of the genetic issues produce small amounts of sperm within the testicles.
- Hypospermatogenesis: This situation is found through routine semen analysis in which sperm production within the testicle are just at lower amounts than normal.
- Varicocele: It is characterized by varicose veins around the testicle that causes male infertility.
- Maturation arrest: It can occur at early or late stage of sperm maturation process.

Cataract is a dense, cloudy area that forms in the lens of the eye. The condition begins when proteins in the eye form clumps that prevent the lens from sending clear images to the retina. The main work of retina is converting the light that comes through the lens into signals and then sends the signals to the optic nerve, which carries them to the brain.
The condition develops slowly with regular exposure to causes and eventually interferes with your vision. Cataracts are common in older people and they have to suffer some of the symptoms like blurry vision, increased sensitivity to glare, double vision in the affected eye, etc. The persons who are at high risk of having cataracts are – people who use long term use of steroids and other medications, who intake high consumption of alcohol, smoking, regular exposure to ultraviolet rays, who had done radiation therapy, trauma, etc.
