Male Fertility Doctor Serving Newport Beach
Male factor infertility accounts for 50% of all fertility challenges, with about 10% of men experiencing significant issues that can hinder their ability to become a father. The good news is that many male fertility problems can now be effectively addressed with modern technology. At The Turek Clinic, we offer comprehensive assessments to uncover the root causes of fertility issues, followed by personalized treatment plans to overcome these obstacles, providing renewed hope to couples striving for parenthood.
Common Male Fertility Issues in Newport Beach
- Azoospermia: Men without sperm in their ejaculate have azoospermia. This condition may be due to a blockage in the reproductive tract (obstructive azoospermia) or issues with sperm production (non-obstructive azoospermia). Both types can hinder natural conception and often require medical intervention.
- Oligospermia: Also known as low sperm count, this condition is characterized by fewer than 15 million sperm per milliliter of semen. Although natural conception is possible, a low count makes it more challenging, and fertility assistance can sometimes be the only viable option for couples.
- Cryptozoospermia: This diagnosis is given to men initially thought to have azoospermia, but who later exhibit small amounts of sperm in their semen. Further evaluation and treatment can help address this issue, enabling reproductive procedures to assist in conception.
- Varicocele: About one-third of Dr. Turek’s patients have varicoceles, which are enlarged veins inside the scrotum. These veins can disrupt blood flow and raise testicular temperatures, impairing sperm production and making natural conception more difficult.
Our Stellar Success Rate
Dr. Paul Turek is recognized worldwide as a leading male fertility specialist. Thousands of men who previously believed they couldn’t have biological children are now fathers thanks to Dr. Turek’s treatments. One of his signature methods is Sperm Mapping, which helps locate viable sperm inside the testicles of men with azoospermia. This sperm can then be used in reproductive procedures like IVF or ICSI.
Fertility Solutions at The Turek Clinic
- Semen Analysis: This early test analyzes the shape, movement, and count of sperm in a man’s semen sample. It provides Dr. Turek with an initial understanding of natural fertilization chances and guides the development of appropriate treatment plans.
- Sperm Mapping: For men with non-obstructive azoospermia, this innovative technique precisely identifies viable sperm aiding their extraction for assisted reproduction. It can also find sperm in 30% of azoospermic men after a failed microTESE.
- Microsurgical Reconstruction: This intricate surgery reconstructs the male reproductive tract, allowing sperm to move freely to the urethra for natural fertilization.
- Sperm Retrieval: Following sperm mapping, Dr. Turek can retrieve sperm in almost half of men with azoospermia without needing to perform a microTESE. This provides sperm for fertility procedures like IVF, ICSI, or IUI with fewer complications and increased success rates.
- Testicular Biopsy: If other tests do not provide enough information, Dr. Turek removes a small amount of testicular tissue for microscopic examination, offering a thorough diagnosis of fertility issues.
- Varicocele Repair: This procedure addresses enlarged veins in the scrotum, lowering testicular temperatures and boosting sperm production.
- Ejaculatory Duct Resection: The TURED procedure reduces blockages in the ejaculatory ducts, ensuring sperm can mix with semen and be present in the ejaculate during intercourse.
- Vasectomy Reversal: This procedure undoes a previous vasectomy by reconnecting the vas deferens, allowing sperm to be released with ejaculate again. Men whose prior reversals have failed have found success at The Turek Clinic.
Sexual Health Services
- Erectile and Ejaculatory Disorder: Two common fertility issues are ED (erectile dysfunction) and EDO (ejaculatory duct obstruction). ED can often be improved with medication, while EDO can be treated with microsurgery.
- Testicle Loss: Dr. Turek offers testicular implants to men who feel less confident due to this condition, helping to restore confidence and balance in their lives.
- Peyronie’s Disease: This condition causes scar tissue to form inside the penis, leading to an unusual bend or curve during erections, which can make intercourse painful and hinder natural fertilization. Treatments can alleviate these symptoms and improve sexual health.
- Low Testosterone: Men’s testosterone levels naturally decline with age, affecting mood, sex drive, and muscle strength. Hormone replacement therapy can help revitalize overall health and boost chances of conceiving a child.
Painless Nitrous Oxide Vasectomy
A vasectomy involves cutting or sealing the vas deferens, preventing sperm from being released during intercourse and effectively making the man sterile. Dr. Turek offers a no-scalpel vasectomy option using nitrous oxide to minimize pain and anxiety, making the procedure stress-free and efficient.
