Facing fertility challenges? Male infertility is treatable — and with the right guidance, fatherhood is within reach.
For many couples trying to have a baby, fertility problems can be mentally draining. Though most of the limelight is focused on female infertility, the truth is that male infertility is responsible for almost half of all cases of infertility. However, male infertility is often ignored, unspoken, or misunderstood. At our fertility clinic in Mumbai, led by IVF specialist Dr. Hrishikesh Pai, we aim to change that.
We provide male infertility treatment in Mumbai with advanced diagnostic equipment, microsurgery, and empathetic, individualised care. Whether you or your partner are unable to conceive, our clinic brings hope, clarity, and genuine solutions and helps you complete your family.
What Is Male Infertility?
Male infertility means a man’s inability to get a fertile woman pregnant after one year or more of regular, unprotected sex. Male infertility may be caused due to issues with sperm production, sperm function, or delivery. Contrary to what most people think, male fertility is not only about the sperm count but also about sperm quality, mobility, form, and general reproductive health.
Some of the common causes of male infertility are:
- Low sperm count (oligospermia)
- Impaired sperm motility (asthenozoospermia)
- Abnormal sperm structure
- Reproductive tract blockage
- Hormonal disorders
- Genetic diseases
- Lifestyle (smoking, alcohol, obesity, stress)
Who Is More Likely to Develop Male Infertility?
Any man may experience fertility issues; some factors raise the risk of male infertility:
- Age: Sperm quality decreases as a person gets older, particularly after 40.
- Medical history: Past infection, surgery such as hernia repair, or long-standing diseases such as diabetes can affect fertility.
- Lifestyle habits: Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, use of recreational drugs, and exposure to environmental pollutants can harm sperm.
- Occupational hazards: Professions that involve prolonged exposure to heat, radiation, or working with industrial chemicals can lead to male infertility problems.
- Stress and lack of sleep: Continuous stress and inadequate sleeping habits can interfere with the hormone synthesis necessary for sperm development.
Knowing your personal risk factors is the starting point. Our fertility doctors in Mumbai offer complete diagnostics to identify the most precise reason for infertility and lead you to the best solution.

Our Procedure To Determine Male Infertility
Step 1: Consultation and Evaluation
Your journey begins with a thorough discussion of your medical, lifestyle, and sexual history. Our experts will ensure you feel heard, respected, and supported from day one.
Step 2: Diagnostic Tests
We conduct advanced semen analysis, hormonal blood tests, scrotal ultrasounds, and genetic screening if needed. This helps us identify the exact problem and tailor a solution.
Step 3: Treatment Planning
Depending on the diagnosis, Dr. Pai will create a customised male infertility treatment plan. It could range from lifestyle adjustment to surgical intervention.
Step 4: Assisted Reproductive Process (If Required)
If sperm is obtained successfully and ART is needed, our embryology team continues with IVF and ICSI in our highly equipped laboratory to achieve maximum success.
Treatment for Male Infertility
Male infertility treatment has come a long way, with microsurgical and advanced reproductive technologies providing excellent success rates. Based on the diagnosis, Dr. Pai prescribes one or more of the following:
1. Microdissection Testicular Sperm Extraction (Micro TESE)
This is an advanced surgical technique done under general anesthesia with a high-powered microscope. The method entails the removal of small amounts of testicular tissue to identify live sperm, even from men with severe non-obstructive azoospermia. It induces minimal tissue damage and enhances sperm retrieval rates.
2. Testicular Sperm Aspiration (TESA) or Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA)
These are less invasive procedures in which sperm is aspirated with a fine needle.
- TESA: Retrieves sperm directly from the testes
- PESA: Retrieves sperm from the epididymis
These are particularly useful for men with obstructive azoospermia, where sperm production is obstructed.
3. Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)
ICSI is combined with IVF. Once the sperm is retrieved (through Micro TESE, TESA, or PESA), one sperm is injected into an egg directly. This method is best for cases with low sperm count or reduced sperm morphology and provides a perfect opportunity for fertilisation and healthy pregnancy.
These advanced treatments for male infertility guarantee that even the most severe male infertility problems can be tackled with accuracy and consideration.
