EP 2. Male Infertility Diagnosis: From At-Home Tests to Azoospermia

In Episode 2 of Unfertile & Unfiltered, Sidney and Matt walk through the period between their first at-home sperm tests and receiving a formal male infertility diagnosis. After multiple tests show zero sperm, they begin the process of sperm analysis, bloodwork, and clinic visits—learning in real time what terms like azoospermia, obstructive vs. non-obstructive azoospermia, FSH and LH levels, and microTESE actually mean. They share what it was like to receive results by phone instead of email, why that moment mattered, and how quickly uncertainty turns into life-changing information. This episode covers: • At-home sperm tests vs. clinical sperm analysis • What azoospermia is and how it’s diagnosed • The emotional impact of a male factor infertility diagnosis • Navigating denial, grief, and differing coping styles • Conversations with family and the pressure to “stay positive” • Early discussions around IVF and surgical options n Episode 2 of Unfertile & Unfiltered, Sidney and Matt walk through the period between their first at-home sperm tests and receiving a formal male infertility diagnosis.
