Abstract

Sex chromosome Y infertility is a genetic disorder that affects sperm production and causes affected men to become infertile. Most men with Y chromosome infertility syndrome have some sperm cells in their urine that can be extracted for this purpose. As the name implies, this type of infertility is caused by changes in the Y sex chromosome. Infertility of the Y sex chromosome is usually caused by the removal of genetic material in areas of the Y chromosome called Azosperm Factor (AZF) A, B or C. Keywords: Azosperm Factor; Oligospermia, Sperm Cell: Sex chromosome Y infertility
