Suffering from No sperms in urine? Can U please palpate(feel) your own vas -the outflow tract from testis ?

The fourth type of genetic disease causing male factor infertility : 4. Genetic Disease of males: What is Cystic Fibrosis disease? It is a common autosomal recessive disorder more common in Northern part of Europe.  CFTR is important for maintenance of viscosity and fluidity of epithelial secretions. If there are mutations of CFTR gene than CBAVD-or sinusitis. Vas is often absent. So also there can be associated absence of seminal vesicles, or ejaculatory ducts.
 There can be bilateral or unilateral absence of vas deferens. Men suffering from CF-will have some anatomical problems of Wolffian duct and typically produce low volume ejaculated semen. So, if your semen volume is always > 0.5 ml then think of CF disease.
