 Male Infertility occurs due to various causes. Male Infertility depends upon genetic and environmental factors also. Most important cause of male Infertility has been known to be due to low sperm count.
Azoospermia
Azoospermia or nil sperm is the most severe form of male factor infertility where man has no sperm in his ejaculation. In other word it can be said that absence of sperm in the semen of a man.Azoospermia can also be known as man having not measurable amount of sperm in his ejaculation for fertilization to proceed. It can be associated with very low level of fertility and even sterility. In human Azoospermia affects about 3 percent of population and even go up to 20 percent of Male Infertility.
CLASSIFICATION
Azoospermia can be classified into various types as listed below but many of the conditions lead to Oligozoospermia rather than Azoospermia-
(I) Testicular Azoospermia- Testis are abnormal, atrophic or absent. Sperm production is severly disturbed. Testicular failure occurs that includes absence or failure to produce sperm and maturation arrest during process of Spermatogenesis.
(II) Pretesticular Azoospermia-Pretesticular Azoospermia includes inadequate stimulation of normal testicle and genital tract. This occurs as Follicle Stimulating hormone is low (Hypogonadatrism) that leads to inadequate stimulation of testis to produce sperm.
(III) Post testicular Azoospermia- In Post testicular Azoospermia sperms are produced but not ejaculated. It is a condition that affects 8 to 80 percent f men. Physical obstruction of the post the post testicular genital tract leads to this condition. Vasectomy done to induce contraceptive reason is the most common cause of this. Cogenital obstructions (agenesis of vas deferens as seen in certain case of cystis fibrosis) or acquired obstruction as ejaculatory duct obstruction.
(IV) Testicular Failure- Radiation and chemotherapy due to cancer and trauma, surgery and other cause can lead to testicular failure. Cogenital issue such as certain genetic condition e.g. (kleinfelter syndrome) and sertoli cell only syndrome can lead to this condition.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is when a man has trouble getting or keeping an erection. ED becomes more common as you get older. But male sexual dysfunction is not a natural part of aging. ED sometimes referred to as impotence - it has underwritten types:
Most man has experienced the problem of premature ejaculation at some or many times in their life. Premature ejaculation is one of the most common sexual problems, which is explained as a condition where a person is unable to delay ejaculation to a point when it is mutually desimble for both of the partners. That means ejaculation occurs before a man want it to happen. Some men ejaculate darning foreplay while some do so at the very entry itself.
The problem of involuntary ejaculation during night is known as night falls or wet dreams. It also known as nocturnal emissions or night discharge. It is mostly found in teenage boys and in some cases in adult males also. Persons immediately awake up after nocturnal emissions.
The terms delayed ejaculation(DE) & retarded ejaculation mean the inability of a man to reach a climax inside vagina. There are number of males with this problem , In a little over half these cases , the man was eventually able to reach orgasm inside his partner’s vagina usually the man can achieve orgasm with masturbation , or loveplay , but not during sexual intercourse. In a journal of urology 2007 Dr. Michael Perelman and Dr. David Rowlands said that this disorder causes considerable distress , anxiety and loss sexual confidence.
The term frigidity is generally used to describe a long term lack of sexual drive and response. It can affect both sexes but it is more usually applied to woman.
Masturbation is the self simulation of the gluitals to achieve sexual arousal & pleasure usually to the point of orgasm (sexual climax). It is commonly done by touching stroking or massaging the penis or clitoris, until an orgasm is achieved. Masturbation is a very common behaviour, even among people who have sexual relations with a partner. In one natural study 95% of males and 89% of female reported that they have masturbated.
Priapism is the presence of a persistent, usually painful, erection of the penis unrelated to sexual stimulation or desire. It is a true urologic emergency that may lead to permanent erectile dysfunction and penile necrosis if left untreated. Priapism is frequently idiopathic in etiology but is associated with a number of important medical conditions and pharmacologic agents.
