Best Andrologist in Bengaluru, Karnataka

Book appointments quickly with verified doctors.

An andrologist is a super-specialized physician (often with postgraduate training in urology) dedicated to the male reproductive system, male fertility, and male hormonal and sexual health. Key reasons to consult an andrologist in Bengaluru include male factor infertility (low sperm count, poor sperm motility, abnormal morphology, or zero sperm / azoospermia), varicocele, hypogonadism (low testosterone / andropause), testicular pain or swelling, Peyronie’s disease (penile curvature), and surgical penile prosthesis implantation.

Male factor issues contribute to approximately 50% of all couple infertility cases worldwide, yet men are frequently under-evaluated. Andrologists in Bengaluru utilize specialized semen analysis according to WHO guidelines, sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) testing, scrotal color Doppler ultrasound, and endocrine evaluations. Treatments include microsurgical varicocelectomy, micro-TESE (microsurgical testicular sperm extraction for IVF/ICSI), and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a urologist and an andrologist?

A urologist treats urinary tract conditions in both men and women, as well as general prostate and kidney disorders. An andrologist is a specialized sub-specialist focusing exclusively on male reproductive medicine, male infertility, semen abnormalities, testosterone deficiency, and penile reconstructive surgery.

How much does an andrologist consultation cost in Bengaluru?

Outpatient consultation fees for verified andrologists in Bengaluru on Nectar Plus Health typically range from a few hundred rupees upward. Diagnostic semen analysis (₹800–₹1,800), sperm DFI testing (₹3,000–₹5,500), and scrotal Doppler ultrasound are billed transparently by accredited partner centers.

What causes low sperm count (oligospermia) and can it be improved?

Low sperm count can be caused by varicoceles, hormonal imbalances, testicular heat exposure, smoking, obesity, nutritional deficiencies, or infections. Andrologists improve sperm counts through targeted antioxidant therapy, hormonal optimization, lifestyle modifications, and microsurgical correction of varicoceles.

What is a varicocele and why does it cause male infertility?

A varicocele is an abnormal enlargement and pooling of veins in the scrotum (similar to varicose veins in legs). This pools warm blood around the testicles, elevating scrotal temperature and increasing oxidative stress, which impairs sperm production and damages DNA. Microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy safely repairs this.

Can men with zero sperm (azoospermia) still father a biological child?

Yes. In obstructive azoospermia, sperm is produced in the testicles but blocked from exit; andrologists retrieve sperm via simple needle aspiration (PESA/TESA). In non-obstructive azoospermia, Micro-TESE uses a high-powered operating microscope to pinpoint microscopic pockets of active sperm production for use in ICSI.

What are the symptoms of low testosterone (male hypogonadism)?

Symptoms of low testosterone include chronic unexplained fatigue, loss of muscle mass, increased abdominal body fat, low sex drive, poor morning erections, mood swings, irritability, and brain fog. Diagnosis is confirmed by measuring early morning fasting serum total and free testosterone.

What is a penile implant (prosthesis) for severe erectile dysfunction?

A penile prosthesis is an internal medical device surgically implanted into the erectile chambers of the penis for men with severe ED unresponsive to medications or injections. Inflatable 3-piece implants provide a completely natural-feeling, rigid erection on demand with a concealed pump, restoring intimacy with high satisfaction rates.

How should I prepare for a semen analysis test in Bengaluru?

For accurate semen analysis results, maintain a strict period of sexual abstinence (no ejaculation through intercourse or masturbation) of 2 to 5 days before sample collection. Avoid alcohol, sauna exposure, or hot baths during this period, and collect the sample directly in a sterile clinic container.
