Prolistem For Azoospermia
If you’ve been told “no sperm” or “no chance,” Prolistem® offers a different path. It’s a patented, all‑natural program with an FDA Certificate of Free Sale (U.S.), designed specifically for non‑obstructive azoospermia (NOA).

Why Prolistem®?
- NOA is one of the toughest fertility challenges. Many men are told there’s nothing to do until surgery.
- New insight: even in difficult patterns like Sertoli Cell Only, a Spermatogonial stem cells may persist. Prolistem® is designed to leverage this hidden potential creating better conditions for sperm production.
- Mechanism‑driven, not miracle claims. The aim is to make the biology more favorable and improve the window for success, including before surgical retrieval.
- Transparent and trackable. Clear steps, timelines, and checkpoints so patients and clinicians can follow progress.
What is Prolistem®?
- 1
- Phase 1 — Reset:
A short, controlled, minor reduction in testosterone (~10–20% under clinician guidance) to help wake stem cells and trigger activity. This range is designed to be safe and well‑tolerated.
Duration: 3 Months
Process: Temporary testosterone reduction (10%-20%)
- 2
- Phase 2 - Rebiuld
After the initial reset, testosterone is increased to recreate the hormonal environment that lets the entire sperm-development process progress from early cells to mature sperm
Duration: 3 Months
Process: Gradual restoration and support
How Prolistem® works (the science in brief)
Think of the classical androgen pathway as the main road for sperm production. When it’s blocked, the body can sometimes use a backup road (non‑classical pathways) to maintain sperm production. Prolistem® can trigger the backup road.
The goal is to restart or enhance spermatogenesis, acknowledging that results vary by individual biology and diagnosis.
Prolistem® uses a proprietary compound—glycyrrhizic acid, which converts in the body to glycyrrhetinic acid. This compound inhibits 17β-HSD, an enzyme that drives testosterone synthesis, allowing a temporary hormonal reset.
This reset triggers activation of critical cell-signaling pathways like MAPK, PI3K/Akt, and Notch, which are essential for restarting early-stage sperm development. It’s like pressing a biological reset button—giving the testicles a chance to begin again.
Who is Prolistem® for?
Men diagnosed with non‑obstructive azoospermia, including patterns such as Sertoli Cell Only and maturation arrest.
Men planning micro‑TESE who want to optimize the pre‑surgical window.
Men with certain genetic backgrounds (e.g., mosaic Klinefelter, partial AZFc deletions) may respond; AZFa/AZFb cases typically have lower success. Genetic counseling is recommended.
What to expect & timeline
Duration
Standard course: 6 months.
In some cases of Sertoli Cell Only and/or very high FSH (>30 IU/L), plan for a 12‑month course under clinician guidance.
Monitoring
Monthly semen analysis throughout treatment (see Recommendation Table).
Periodic hormone labs as directed by your clinician.
Do not expect to find sperm before completing the full course.
If no sperm after the full course, Schedule micro‑TESE within 2 months of completion to capture the best window.
- Plan for IVF/ICSI if sperm appears; do not expect natural pregnancy.
Success Rate
48% overall success (any sperm detected in semen or retrieved by micro‑TESE).
23% had sperm appear in semen, enabling IVF/ICSI. Spontaneous natural pregnancy in NOA is rare.
25% had sperm successfully retrieved via micro‑TESE after completing the full protocol.
No therapy can guarantee success in NOA due to the condition’s complexity.

What makes Prolistem® different?
- Designed for NOA with a defined hormonal strategy.
- Pre‑surgical optimization commonly used before micro‑TESE.
- Structured, trackable plan—not guesswork.
- Honest expectations: we don’t promise miracles; we aim to make the biology more favorable.
Free SpermSure Kit
(with every U.S. Prolistem® order)
With every Prolistem® kit purchased in the USA, you will receive a free SpermSure™ Home Semen Collection Kit for 12 weeks.
To maximize your chances of success, frequent semen analysis is essential. The SpermSure™ Kit allows you to collect semen samples privately and conveniently from home.
The SpermSure Kit is free of charge
Lab analysis cost: $150 (covers all 12 samples)
Once you’ve completed the 12 collections, simply ship the samples to our certified U.S. lab. We will analyze them and email you a detailed report.
What do the results mean?
If your body produces even a small amount of sperm, we will detect it. This helps identify the optimal timing for performing a clinical semen analysis or scheduling a microTESE.
According to U.S. and Canadian guidelines, up to 10% of men with azoospermia may produce sperm intermittently, but timing is critical.
With SpermSure™, we cover your entire spermatogenic cycle, giving you the best chance to detect sperm when it appears.
