Presentation
We report one case of GMPC arising from the prostate central zone (CZ), presenting with long-standing aspermia associated with seminal vesicle fibrous obliteration. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
CASE REPORT A 61-year-old male presented with a 1-year history of abdominal distension and urinary retention, and a 3-year history of aspermia. [synapse.koreamed.org]
Since the ejaculate in males with aspermia is not cellular, there is also very little DNA present that might be used in forensic testing. [encyclopedia.com]

Short Stature
A 41-years old male with short stature, abnormal male sex differentiation, aspermia and schizoid character disorder is described. The patient was studied from clinical, endocrinological and genetic perspectives. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Delayed Menarche
In one study, delayed menarche in five of seven female patients and infertility in the asymptomatic male patient (two of whom were found to have aspermia) could have led to earlier diagnosis. [clinmedjournals.org]

Testicular Pain
Another study described an unusual association of aspermia and untreatable, chronic testicular pain in a young man who underwent 14 surgical interventions for an imperforate anus. [clinmedjournals.org]
Treatment
However, the data are insufficient to allow firm comparisons between treatment options. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Aspermia therapy at the urological department of the Friedrichshafen clinic involves: Hormone management; Psychological support; Physical treatment; Reconstructive surgical treatment; Antibacterial treatment; Antibiotic treatment; Surgical management [klinikum-friedrichshafen.com]
Treatments must be tailored to the individual patient, and treatment decisions should involve consideration of ease of administration, degree of invasiveness, and anticipated success. [fertstertdialog.com]
This can be the result of absence of puberty, in which the prostate gland and seminal vesicles (which are the main sources of semen) remain small due to lack of androgen exposure and do not produce seminal fluid, or of treatment for prostate cancer, such [en.wikipedia.org]
Prognosis
Positive prognosis likely with careful and proper treatment if the pathology was the result of functional disorders. Often a man can make a full recovery, regain reproductive opportunities, improve the quality of sexual life, to restore fertility. [syphilis.vsebolezni.com]
If the failure of descent is due to an obstruction then the prognosis in terms of fertility is much higher than if no obstruction is present. [drdaiter.com]
Etiology
The treatment of aspermia varies with underlying etiology and includes medical therapy with sympathomimetics, urinary sperm retrieval, bladder neck reconstruction, prostatic massage, penile vibratory stimulation, electroejaculation, and surgical sperm [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The main treatments based on these etiologies include anti-infection, discontinuing medication, artificial inseminization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), in vitro fertilization, and reconstructive surgery. [nsuworks.nova.edu]
Etiological factors Possible causes of disease: Approaching old age men. Aspermia at this age is considered to be an irreversible physiological process. Significantly worsens the quality of sperm. [syphilis.vsebolezni.com]
Pathophysiology
Coverage of pathophysiology and interventions for the pregnant woman, fetus, and newborn for selected abnormal events provides a solid understanding of physiologic adaptations and developmental physiology relating to major body systems and metabolic processes [books.google.com]
Prevention
Other causes of aspermia include ejaculatory duct obstruction (EDO), the presence of blockage or growths preventing discharge, and anejaculation, the failure to reach ejaculation by orgasm due to psychological or psychosomatic factors. [fertilitysmarts.com]
The primary goal of treatment is to prevent the release of semen into the bladder. In case ejaculation is affected due to obstruction of the seminal tract, the patient may need surgery. [klinikum-friedrichshafen.com]
It is important to treat the disease better to prevent such problems, as infectious diseases, which are transmitted by sexual way. After all, that reason is one of the most widespread. [smarthealthcarecard.com]
Are There Any Ways To Prevent Aspermia? The series of urinary tract inflammation is one of the major causes of ejaculatory or epididymal obstruction. [performanceinsiders.com]
Treatments and Preventions Retrograde ejaculation does not generally pose any health risks and treatment is often unnecessary. [soc.ucsb.edu]
