MTESE Success after failed STAR test. NOA

As someone who has been in here a lot the last couple of months I just want to remind people that there’s always still a chance things work out. My hormones were fine, I had no genetic issues, no blockages, normal size testicles, no drinking/smoking, healthy weight. Yet I had azoospermia as a 28 year old man. It was devastating. I took clomid, every vitamin you could think of just to see if it would help and it was always 0 in my 5 Sperm analysis. I even spent the money and had the STAR test done at Columbia University and still nothing. The MTESE was the last shot and we had success. Total sperm after freeze/thaw was 240 which gives me and my wife a lot of try’s at IVF with the ICSI method. For the guys nervous about an MTESE I want to just say it wasn’t that painful I had the surgery on Tuesday and was at work Friday and it was worth every ounce of discomfort and money. If there’s anyone with questions feel free to ask!
