No sperm in semen: Azoospermia means there is no sperm in a man's ejaculate. This can either be from obstruction or lack of production. A urologist with fertility training can make that diagnosis and provide treatment options. Often, men that have no sperm in semen make a small amount of sperm that can be retrieved from the testicle for in vitro fertilization.

"Azoospermia": This term refers to a semen specimen where no sperm activity is present microscopically if the sperm specimen is viewed immediately after production. If sufficient time elapsed prior to examination, the sperm may have been already inactivated, and the test should be repeated and viewed immediately after production.
