Dr Tet Yap, a consultant andrological surgeon, joins me this week to talk about male fertility, the role of andrology, and the challenges faced by men in accessing fertility care.


We discuss the differences between andrologists and urologists, the increasing awareness of male fertility issues, common causes of male infertility, and the implications of Klinefelter syndrome.


We discuss:

  • How Andrology is a subspecialty of urology focused on male reproductive health.
  • Why there is a significant shortage of andrologists compared to gynecologists.
  • How male fertility issues are often overlooked in fertility discussions.
  • How ICSI can treat infertility but does not address underlying male health issues.
  • How Klinefelter syndrome is a common genetic cause of male infertility.
  • Why many men with fertility issues have not seen an andrologist before seeking treatment.
  • How awareness of male fertility testing is increasing, but access remains a challenge.
  • Why proper diagnosis can lead to better treatment outcomes for male fertility.
  • Why patients often experience delays in receiving appropriate care for male fertility issues.
  • How online consultations can help connect patients with andrology specialists.
