Electroejaculation Procedure for Male Infertility in UAE

How Electroejaculation Can Help You Achieve Parenthood

If you’re facing challenges with male infertility, electroejaculation (EEJ) could be the solution. This innovative treatment is designed to help men who suffer from ejaculatory dysfunction or inability to ejaculate, providing a way to retrieve sperm for IVF or ICSI

At VIVILITY, we specialize in offering EEJ treatment to help men in the UAE achieve parenthood with enhanced sperm retrieval techniques.

What is Electroejaculation (EEJ)?

Electroejaculation (EEJ) is a procedure used to retrieve sperm in men who are unable to ejaculate due to conditions like spinal cord injuries, retrograde ejaculation, or ejaculatory dysfunction. The treatment involves electrical stimulation of the prostate to induce ejaculation, providing a viable sperm sample for fertility treatments such as IVF and ICSI.

How Does Electroejaculation Work in Male Fertility Treatment?

The EEJ procedure uses electrical stimulation applied to the prostate and seminal vesicles to trigger sperm release. This method is particularly helpful for men who have difficulty ejaculating naturally, enabling them to still have viable sperm for fertility treatments.

How It Works:

  1. Electrical stimulation is applied via a probe to the prostate, which induces ejaculation.
  2. The collected sperm is then assessed for quality and motility to ensure it’s suitable for use in IVF or ICSI.
  3. The sperm is then prepared for use in fertility treatments, enhancing the chances of conception.

Why Electroejaculation (EEJ) is Used in Male Fertility Treatments

EEJ is most commonly used in the following cases:

  • Azoospermia (absence of sperm in the ejaculate) is caused by ejaculatory dysfunction.
  • Men with spinal cord injuries who have difficulty producing sperm through normal ejaculation.
  • Retrograde ejaculation (when sperm travels backward into the bladder instead of being ejaculated).
  • Anejaculation (the inability to ejaculate due to neurological disorders).

EEJ helps provide a method for sperm retrieval when traditional methods fail, enabling men to pursue assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as IVF and ICSI.

Indications for Electroejaculation (EEJ)

EEJ is an ideal treatment option for:

  • Men with spinal cord injury who have no voluntary control over ejaculation.
  • Men with retrograde ejaculation or anejaculation.
  • Infertility is caused by the inability to ejaculate, where other sperm retrieval methods like TESA or PESA are not viable.
  • Candidates for ICSI where sperm retrieval is needed for fertilization but ejaculation is not possible.

The Electroejaculation (EEJ) Procedure at VIVILITY

At VIVILITY, we provide a thorough, step-by-step EEJ procedure to ensure the best results for sperm retrieval:

  1. Initial Consultation: A detailed fertility assessment to determine whether EEJ is the right option.
  2. Sperm Collection: Under controlled conditions, electrical stimulation is applied to induce ejaculation.
  3. Semen Analysis: The collected sperm is carefully analyzed for motility and viability.
  4. Preparation for IVF/ICSI: The sperm is processed and prepared for use in IVF or ICSI, optimizing the chances of fertilization.

Success Rate of Electroejaculation for Male Infertility

The success of EEJ largely depends on the quality of the sperm retrieved and the specific infertility factors involved. 

However, EEJ has proven to be an effective method for sperm retrieval in cases where ejaculatory dysfunction or spinal cord injury prevents normal sperm ejaculation. The success rate can be higher when combined with ICSI for fertilization.

  • Higher sperm retrieval rates in men with specific infertility conditions.
  • Improved fertilization outcomes in IVF/ICSI treatments.
  • Increased chances of successful conception when used appropriately.

Risks and Side Effects of Electroejaculation (EEJ)

Like any medical procedure, EEJ comes with certain risks and potential side effects, though they are typically rare and mild. Some risks include:

  • Discomfort during the stimulation process.
  • Possible temporary soreness or bruising in the pelvic area.
  • Rare side effects such as headache, nausea, or dizziness.
  • Complications with sperm retrieval in cases of severe neurological conditions.

At VIVILITY, we ensure all patients are fully informed about the procedure and potential side effects before treatment begins.

Aftercare Following Electroejaculation Treatment

After the EEJ procedure, you may experience mild discomfort or temporary soreness. Here’s how you can care for yourself post-treatment:

  • Rest and hydrate to assist in recovery.
  • Avoid strenuous physical activity for 24-48 hours after the procedure.
