Severe oligozoospermia is characterized by sperm count fluctuations that may result in insufficient quantities of motile sperm for ICSI on the day of oocyte retrieval, thus necessitating testicular biopsy. To avoid this, we proposed that patients, with transient azoospermia or repeatedly low sperm counts, make a safety pool of frozen spermatozoa before ICSI attempts.
