TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction) in Hyderabad – Advanced Male Fertility Procedure at Shubha Fertility
Your hopes of becoming a parent don't have to cease because of male infertility. Even guys who have no sperm in their ejaculate can become fathers because of medical developments like TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction). We at Shubha Fertility provide cutting-edge sperm extraction methods customized for each patient's circumstances, advancing your family-building goals.
What is TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction)?
Sperm can be extracted straight from the testicular tissue with TESE, a small surgical operation, particularly in men who have non-obstructive azoospermia, a condition in which sperm production in the ejaculate is either nonexistent or very poor. A tiny sample of testicular tissue is taken (biopsied) and analyzed in a laboratory to obtain viable sperm during TESE.
The scope and methodology of TESE are different from those of TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration). Although TESA uses needle aspiration, TESE is a more comprehensive biopsy method that is best suited for more complicated cases of infertility when TESA may not be able to recover any or enough sperm. When production is limited, TESE improves the chances of finding viable sperm and enables a more thorough analysis.
Who Needs TESE for Fertility Treatment?
TESE is typically recommended for:
- Men diagnosed with non-obstructive azoospermia
- Patients with previous failed TESA or no sperm retrieval through ejaculation
- Those with testicular failure or hormonal issues affecting sperm production
- Cases where genetic or medical conditions impact sperm development
By directly accessing the testicular tissue, TESE offers a higher likelihood of retrieving sperm for use in assisted reproduction, particularly ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection).

TESE Procedure – Step-by-Step Overview
- Preoperative evaluation – Includes hormone analysis, genetic testing, and scrotal ultrasound
- Anesthesia – Usually performed under local or general anesthesia for comfort
- Tissue biopsy – A small incision is made in the scrotum to extract testicular tissue
- Lab processing – The sample is examined under a microscope to isolate sperm
- Storage or use – Retrieved sperm is either used immediately for ICSI or frozen
TESE is generally a daycare procedure, and most men return home the same day.
How TESE Supports IVF/ICSI Treatments
The sperm retrieved through TESE is directly injected into the egg using ICSI, which bypasses the natural fertilization process. This is a powerful combination that offers high success rates for couples facing severe male factor infertility. TESE allows even men with no sperm in their semen to father biological children.
TESE Success Rate and Cost
Success with TESE largely depends on the underlying cause of infertility. In patients with isolated testicular issues, the chances of finding viable sperm can range from 30% to 60% or more. When successful, TESE paired with ICSI leads to promising fertilization and pregnancy rates.
At Shubha Fertility, TESE is offered at a transparent and affordable cost, with flexible packages available for combined IVF/ICSI cycles. Speak to our care team for a detailed cost breakdown and payment options.
