Male Infertility
This full-service male infertility clinic is operated in close conjunction with the Gynecology/Reproductive Endocrinology department. Couples presenting with infertility undergo both medical and anatomic evaluations, with the goal of finding a successful treatment for their infertility as a couple.
In 50% of couples facing infertility issues, there is an identifiable male component. Recent advances in both the identification and treatment of "male factor infertility" have helped many couples in their goal of having a family. Along with a physical examination, the initial clinic visit includes an extensive medical and surgical history, including questions regarding:
- Any previous evaluation for male infertility
- Other medical conditions
- Current medications, including herbal supplements
- Social history, including alcohol and recreational drug use
- Any difficulties with erectile function
- A history of back, retroperitoneal, genitourinary or pelvic surgery
- Family history of fertility issues
For those couples who require higher level assisted reproductive techniques, the Male Infertility team works in close coordination with female fertility specialists. The Assisted Reproductive Technologies laboratory at the University of Michigan Health System offers comprehensive sperm assessment, as well as sperm processing for artificial insemination. Couples are evaluated and assisted with intrauterine insemination (IUI), in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) as needed.
