Overview

Male infertility is a common challenge affecting many couples trying to conceive. One of the leading causes is obstructive azoospermia, a condition in which sperm production is normal, but a blockage prevents sperm from being released during ejaculation. At Joshi Andrology and Urology Centre, we offer advanced PESA Treatment in Bangalore to help men overcome infertility and achieve their dream of parenthood.

As a trusted andrology hospital in Bangalore, our team specialises in modern sperm retrieval procedures and personalised fertility care. Under the guidance of experienced fertility and andrology specialists, we provide comprehensive evaluation, diagnosis, treatment, and support throughout the fertility journey.

PESA (Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration) is a minimally invasive sperm retrieval procedure used to collect sperm directly from the epididymis. The procedure is commonly recommended for men diagnosed with obstructive azoospermia, where sperm production is normal but cannot reach the semen due to a blockage. The retrieved sperm can then be used in assisted reproductive techniques such as IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation) and ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection), significantly improving the chances of successful conception.

PESA is frequently performed before IVF or ICSI when sperm cannot be obtained naturally. During the procedure, sperm are collected using a fine needle and prepared for use in fertility treatments. The retrieved sperm may be used immediately or cryopreserved (frozen) for future IVF cycles. Our fertility specialists work closely with IVF centres to ensure seamless coordination and optimal outcomes for couples undergoing assisted reproduction.

The PESA procedure success rate is generally high in men with obstructive azoospermia because sperm production within the testes remains normal. Success depends on the underlying fertility condition, duration of obstruction, sperm quality, the female partner's reproductive health, and the IVF or ICSI treatment protocol.

Recovery after PESA is usually quick and uncomplicated. Most patients return to normal daily activities within a short period. Post-procedure care includes prescribed medications, avoiding strenuous physical activity for a few days, hygiene guidance, and structured follow-up — our specialists provide complete aftercare to ensure a smooth recovery and successful fertility planning.
