Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA): A Minimally Invasive Solution for Male Infertility

Are you struggling with male infertility due to blockages in the reproductive tract? Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA) offers a minimally invasive solution for sperm retrieval. At Conceive India IVF, our fertility specialists utilize this advanced technique to help couples overcome obstructive male infertility. We provide comprehensive care and support throughout your journey to parenthood.

What is PESA?

Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA) is a simple, needle-based procedure that retrieves sperm directly from the epididymis, the tube behind the testicle where sperm matures and is stored. This quick and minimally invasive technique is performed under local anesthesia and requires no surgical incisions.

Who can benefit from PESA?

PESA is particularly beneficial for men with:

Obstructive Azoospermia: When sperm production is normal but there’s a blockage preventing sperm from reaching the ejaculate.

Congenital Absence of Vas Deferens: Men born without the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles.

Failed Vasectomy Reversal: Those who have unsuccessful vasectomy reversal procedures.

Post-Infection Blockage: Blockages caused by previous infections or inflammation.

Ejaculatory Dysfunction: Problems with normal ejaculation despite normal sperm production.

The PESA Process

The PESA Process

The PESA procedure involves several key steps:

  1. Pre-procedure Evaluation: Assessment of medical history and fertility status through hormone testing and physical examination.
  2. Local Anesthesia: Application of local anesthetic for patient comfort.
  3. Sperm Aspiration: Using a fine needle to extract sperm from the epididymis.
  4. Laboratory Processing: Immediate evaluation of the retrieved sample for viable sperm.
  5. Sperm Freezing: Cryopreservation of viable sperm for future use in assisted reproduction.

Advantages of PESA:

  1. Minimal Invasiveness:
  • No surgical incisions required
  • Performed under local anesthesia
  • Quick recovery time
  • Minimal post-procedure discomfort
  1. Convenience and Efficiency:
  • Outpatient procedure
  • Takes approximately 20-30 minutes
  • Can be repeated if necessary
  • High success rates in suitable candidates

Frequently Asked Questions

Is PESA painful?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort. Most patients report only mild tenderness afterward, which typically resolves within a few days.
What are the success rates of PESA?
In cases of obstructive azoospermia, PESA has high success rates for sperm retrieval. The specific success rates depend on individual factors, which our fertility experts will discuss during your consultation.
Can I return to work after PESA?
Most patients can return to normal activities within 24 hours. However, we recommend avoiding strenuous activities for a few days after the procedure.
How is PESA different from other sperm retrieval methods?
PESA is less invasive than surgical sperm retrieval methods like TESE or Micro-TESE. It’s particularly suitable for men with obstructive azoospermia where sperm production is normal but blocked.
What is the cost of PESA treatment?
The cost varies depending on individual circumstances and whether additional fertility treatments are needed. We encourage you to schedule a consultation at Conceive India IVF for a detailed cost breakdown specific to your situation.
Will the sperm retrieved through PESA be enough for fertility treatment?
In most cases, PESA retrieves sufficient sperm for ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection). Retrieved sperm can also be frozen for future use.
