Background: Azoospermia has defined as totally absent sperms from ejaculate after two separate semen analyses that roughly could ensue in 10%- 15% of infertile males with the atypical seminal examination. The main two sub classification of infertility are ''Obstructive (OA) and Non-Obstructive (NOA). The sperm retrieval of testicles by ''Fine-Needle Aspiration (FNA) or Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE)'' can give a promising result of reproduction. Currently, the use of diagnostic tests like a Follicular Stimulating Hormone (FSH) besides Inhibin-B for the valuation of spermio genesis by several trials has widely spread. This study aimed to investigate the association of serum Inhibin B and FSH with testicular biopsy and to reduce avoidable analytic testicular biopsies in males with NOA. Methodology: The study was a c.. Read More»
