Micro-TESE Treatment is a breakthrough sperm retrieval procedure for men with azoospermia. At AAS Fertility & IVF Center, our specialists use advanced microdissection techniques to give hope of biological fatherhood.

#UNDERSTANDING TESE

What is Micro-TESE Treatment?

Micro TESE, or Microdissection Testicular Sperm Extraction, is a surgical procedure that helps men with azoospermia, a condition in which no sperm is present in the semen. As a result, Micro TESE offers them a renewed chance at fatherhood.

By carefully examining testicular tissue under a microscope, sperm can be retrieved and later used for IVF or IUI treatment. This procedure has helped many couples achieve their dream of parenthood.

#STEP-BY-STEP

How It Works

Micro-TESE Treatment is a precise surgical procedure used to retrieve sperm directly from the testicular tissue in cases of severe male infertility. Under a microscope, our specialists carefully extract tiny tissue samples. Then, they isolate viable sperm for use in assisted reproductive techniques like ICSI, which significantly increases the chances of successful fertilization.

Have Questions About Micro TESE?

At AAS Fertility & IVF Center, we’ve addressed the most common questions to help you feel informed, supported, and confident as you begin your fertility journey.

Is Micro TESE painful?

No, Our specialists perform the procedure under general anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain during surgery.

Mild discomfort or swelling may occur afterward, but recovery is usually quick.

Most patients can return to normal activities within 2–3 days. At AAS Fertility & IVF Center, our doctors provide aftercare guidance to ensure a smooth recovery.

In the rare event that no sperm is found after a testicular sperm extraction (TESE) procedure, it means that the individual has a complete lack of sperm production (azoospermia) that is not correctable with this method. In such cases, there is no alternative option to use the person’s own sperm.

If sperm is retrieved successfully, it can often be used immediately for IVF or IUI. Your doctor at AAS Fertility & IVF Center will recommend the best timeline based on your case.

Risks are minimal but may include temporary swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort. Serious complications are rare when performed by experienced specialists.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about Micro TESE surgery for zero sperm count? Dr. Naila Jabeen at AAS Fertility & IVF Center, Lahore answers the most important questions men ask before considering Micro TESE treatment in Pakistan.

What is Micro TESE and who needs it in Pakistan?

Micro TESE (Microdissection Testicular Sperm Extraction) is a microsurgical procedure used to find and retrieve sperm directly from the testis. It is recommended for men with azoospermia — a condition where no sperm is found in the semen. Therefore, it is the only solution for men with zero sperm count who want to father a biological child. AAS Fertility & IVF Center on Jail Road, Lahore offers Micro TESE under the expert care of Dr. Naila Jabeen.

Regular TESE involves removing small pieces of testicular tissue randomly to look for sperm. However, Micro TESE uses a high-powered surgical microscope to identify the most sperm-rich areas of the testis before extraction. As a result, Micro TESE has a significantly higher sperm retrieval rate than regular TESE. Furthermore, it causes less damage to testicular tissue. AAS Fertility & IVF Center in Lahore performs Micro TESE using the latest microsurgical techniques.

The sperm retrieval success rate with Micro TESE varies between 40 to 60% depending on the underlying cause of azoospermia. Men with non-obstructive azoospermia have lower but still meaningful retrieval rates. However, obstructive azoospermia cases generally have higher success rates. At AAS Fertility & IVF Center, Jail Road, Lahore, Dr. Naila Jabeen evaluates each case individually to give couples a realistic and honest assessment before proceeding.

Micro TESE at AAS Fertility & IVF Center treats two main types of azoospermia. Obstructive azoospermia occurs when sperm is produced but blocked from reaching the semen — success rates are very high in these cases. Non-obstructive azoospermia occurs when sperm production itself is severely reduced — Micro TESE still offers hope in many of these cases. Furthermore, Dr. Naila Jabeen in Lahore conducts a full evaluation including hormone tests and ultrasound before recommending Micro TESE.

Yes — sperm retrieved through Micro TESE at AAS Fertility & IVF Center can be frozen and stored for future use. Therefore, if more sperm is retrieved than needed for the current IVF cycle, the extra sperm can be cryopreserved. As a result, couples do not need to repeat the surgery for future IVF attempts. AAS Fertility & IVF Center in Lahore offers sperm banking as part of our comprehensive male infertility treatment programme.

Before Micro TESE at AAS Fertility & IVF Center, Dr. Naila Jabeen recommends a complete evaluation including semen analysis, hormone tests (FSH, LH, testosterone), and a scrotal ultrasound. Furthermore, patients should avoid smoking and alcohol for at least 3 months before surgery. A complete medical history review is conducted at our clinic on Jail Road, Lahore to ensure the best possible outcome. Call +92 311 1100251 to schedule your pre-surgery assessment today.

AAS Fertility & IVF Center is one of the very few fertility clinics in Lahore offering Micro TESE surgery for men with zero sperm count. Dr. Naila Jabeen and our specialist team perform Micro TESE using advanced microsurgical techniques in a state-of-the-art facility at Chohan Tower, 16 Jail Road, Shadman II, Lahore. Furthermore, retrieved sperm is immediately used by our expert embryology team for ICSI — giving couples the best possible chance of successful pregnancy in Pakistan.
