Default Re: Partial Testicular Failure

Molli - I just posted this on the other thread with Mandy, but the key word is "partial" which means there is some sperm and some working areas. So, you can't get the parts that are failing working again in most cases (it is often genetic), but you can either retrieve sperm from the working areas for IVF through TESE, or sometimes the meds cause the working areas to increase production sufficiently that some will come out in the ejaculate (or just make it easier to find them doing TESE).
