The study will be conducted in men with a diagnosis of non-obstructive azoospermia or cryptozoospermia after obtaining written informed consent. The diagnosis of azoospermia and cryptozoospermia will be based on two semen analyses performed at least 15 days apart, followed by a documented micro testicular sperm extraction (TESE). A detailed history will be obtained, physical examination and laboratory evaluation will be performed prior to treatment. In physical examination, testicular volumes will be evaluated using an orchiometer. Serum FSH and testosterone values will be determined. PRP will be prepared by centrifugation of approximately 20 ml autologous blood obtained by phlebotomy. PRP (3 ml) will be administered into the seminiferous tubule or interstitial space of each testis. Sperm analysis, testicular volume (using orchiometer), serum FSH and testosterone levels will be reevaluated at 8 weeks post-procedure. Micro TESE will performed on the third month after PRP procedure.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
