Assessment of Hormonal Essay in Non-Obstructive and Obstructive Subject in Central India

Abstract

Infertility is slowly become major issue for married fertile couple in India. Now a days due to availability of

many techniques and tests we came to know that male partner is equally contributed for infertility. The term

“Azoospermia” is defined as the complete absence of sperm in the ejaculate, is identified in approximately

1% of all men and in 10 to 15% of infertile males. The various causes of infertility include disturbances in

both partners (26%),disturbances in female partner (39%) and disturbances in the male (20%). No identifiable

cause was found in 15% of cases. Around 1.5% azoospermic infertile male attributed to obstruction of the

excurrent genital tract. In this study we focus on some etiological facts of azoospermia that plays important

role in causing male infertility. We found that the level of hormones FSH and LH are significantly raised

as compare to control group. Also, the testosterone level is significantly less in azoospermic subject as

compare to control group. When we separately compared the hormonal profile of Obstructive and non

Obstructive subjects we found the level of Gonadotropic hormone FSH and LH is significantly high in

Non-obstructive Azoospermic patients while the testosterone hormone level is significantly low in Non

obstructive Azoospermic subjects. It indicates the primary hypogonadism. This study depicts the hormonal

profile in infertile male that will be helpful in further assessment and management of such individuals.
