A healthy person has 46 chromosomes. Their last pair are sex chromosomes and in the case of females they are X and X, while the last pair in males are X and Y.

When we talk about male factor infertility, it is important to know if any area of the Y chromosome is missing.

It is precisely to determine this problem that the Y chromosome microdeletion test is performed.

Testing is recommended for men with severe oligozoospermia and azoospermia;

A small sample of blood or saliva is used for the test. During the analysis, we examine specific areas of the Y chromosome and get complete information about their damage. The obtained results help us to determine the correct direction of treatment.
