I've been diagnosed with Grade 2 Varicocele and have low sperm count with poor motility. My urologist recommended IVF/ICSI since surgery might not help much. Is there any other way to improve sperm motility naturally or through other treatments?

So my husband's sperm count came back as nil after his recent test, and we're quite concerned about this. The volume is measured at 2ml, and the viscosity seems normal. However, the report mentioned the presence of 45 pus cells and prostatic cells. I'm really worried about whether this means he can still become a father. Can you help us understand what might be going on and if there's anything we can do?

A nil sperm count, also known as azoospermia, can make it difficult to conceive naturally. However, there are treatment options available. Your husband may benefit from a consultation with a doctor specializing in male fertility. In cases of azoospermia, medications such as Clomiphene or hormonal treatments like Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) may be prescribed to help increase sperm production. Additionally, surgical procedures like Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE) or Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA) can be considered to retrieve sperm for assisted reproductive techniques like Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) or In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). It's important to consult with a specialist to determine the most suitable treatment plan based on your husband's specific condition.

I've put undiluted Dettol on the top of my penis to clean it, and now it's swollen. It doesn't hurt much, but it's pretty uncomfortable. What should I do to make the swelling go down?
