Doppler Tests & Urological Procedures
Doppler Tests
Doppler tests are important for understanding male infertility. They check the blood flow to the reproductive organs, like the testes, to see if there are any problems that might be affecting fertility. By looking at blood flow, doctors can identify conditions like varicoceles or other issues that may reduce sperm quality or block sperm delivery.
