Gonadotropin therapy for low testosterone and sperm production
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests whether hormone injections can help men with low testosterone and low sperm counts due to unknown causes. The goal is to restore healthy testosterone levels and improve fertility without surgery.

This study tests two medicines—isotretinoin and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)—to see if they can improve sperm production in men with low sperm counts or no sperm due to certain causes. It might help if you haven't responded to other treatments before.
This study compares two different hormone treatments to see which one better improves sperm health and increases pregnancy chances in men with low or abnormal sperm. You'll receive either injections or pills designed to boost sperm production.
This trial tests whether a new hormone medication called leflutrozole can help men with azoospermia (no sperm in semen) produce sperm again. The medication works by adjusting hormone levels to stimulate sperm production.
This trial tests a new drug called Leflutrozole to see if it can improve testicular function in men with low testosterone and low sperm count. The goal is to help increase natural hormone levels and sperm production.
This trial studies whether platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can improve fertility in men with a specific cause of infertility called NOA who have not had success with prior procedures. It may help improve the chance of getting usable sperm for conception.
This trial studies a special lab procedure where selected immature sperm cells are injected to help infertile couples achieve pregnancy. It is designed for couples where the man has a specific type of sperm-making problem found during a testicular sperm extraction.
