Fertility Treatment for Low Sperm Count: Hope and Solutions at Panama Fertility

Struggling with low sperm count can be frustrating and emotional, but it’s important to know you are not alone — and that real, effective treatments are available.
At Panama Fertility, we specialize in providing advanced fertility treatment for low sperm count, helping men from the Bahamas and across the Caribbean overcome barriers to fatherhood.

If you’re looking for answers, solutions, and support, here’s how Panama Fertility can help you take the first step toward your family dreams.

What Is Low Sperm Count?

Low sperm count, or oligospermia, is defined when a man has fewer than 15 million sperm per milliliter of semen.

Common causes include:

  • Hormonal imbalances

  • Varicocele (enlarged veins in the scrotum)

  • Genetic factors

  • Lifestyle factors (smoking, alcohol, obesity)

  • Exposure to toxins

  • Past infections or injuries

  • Age-related decline

Regardless of the cause, modern treatments offer excellent outcomes when properly tailored to each individual.

How We Diagnose Low Sperm Count

At Panama Fertility, diagnosis starts with:

1. Comprehensive Semen Analysis

We evaluate:

  • Sperm concentration (number of sperm)

  • Motility (movement)

  • Morphology (shape)

  • Semen volume and pH

Our advanced fertility lab ensures precise, detailed semen assessments.

2. Hormonal Evaluation

Blood tests check hormones such as:

  • Testosterone

  • Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)

  • Luteinizing hormone (LH)

Hormonal imbalances can often be corrected medically.

3. Genetic Testing

If sperm counts are extremely low, genetic testing may reveal underlying causes, such as Y chromosome microdeletions.

4. Testicular Ultrasound

This painless imaging identifies varicoceles, blockages, or structural problems.

With a full diagnosis, we can create the right treatment plan for you.

Fertility Treatment Options for Low Sperm Count at Panama Fertility

Once we understand the cause, treatment options include:

1. Lifestyle and Medical Management

Simple changes can sometimes improve sperm counts significantly:

  • Weight loss and exercise

  • Quitting smoking and reducing alcohol

  • Stress reduction

  • Treating underlying infections

In some cases, hormonal therapy may restore sperm production.

2. Surgical Treatment: Varicocele Repair

If a varicocele is present, minor surgery can improve sperm counts dramatically within months.

3. Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART)

When natural conception remains difficult, ART offers powerful solutions:

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

  • Healthy, motile sperm are washed and placed directly into the uterus.

  • Best for mild to moderate low sperm count.

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) with ICSI

  • ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) involves injecting a single sperm directly into an egg.

  • Ideal for severe cases of oligospermia.

  • Offers very high fertilization rates even with very low sperm numbers.

At Panama Fertility, we use state-of-the-art IVF and ICSI technology to maximize your success.

4. Sperm Retrieval Procedures

If no sperm are present in the semen, surgical sperm retrieval techniques like TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction) or PESA (Percutaneous Sperm Aspiration) can retrieve viable sperm for use in IVF.

There is almost always a solution, even for the most challenging cases.
