Electroejaculation (EEJ) in KSA | Advanced Sperm Retrieval

Electroejaculation (EEJ) – Advanced Sperm Retrieval for Ejaculatory Dysfunction

For men who are unable to ejaculate due to spinal cord injury, diabetic neuropathy, or other neurological conditions, achieving biological fatherhood may feel out of reach. Fortunately, medical science offers a breakthrough: Electroejaculation (EEJ).

At VIVILITY across Saudi Arabia, we offer safe and advanced EEJ procedures designed to retrieve sperm non-invasively—even when natural ejaculation is not possible. Whether due to complete anejaculation or retrograde flow, EEJ allows sperm to be collected for use in IVF, ICSI, or IUI.

Book your consultation today in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, or major cities in KSA and take control of your fertility journey.

What is Electroejaculation (EEJ)?

Electroejaculation (EEJ) is a medical procedure that induces ejaculation using controlled electrical stimulation of the prostate and seminal vesicles via a rectal probe. It is especially useful for men who cannot ejaculate due to neurological impairment.

Unlike other sperm retrieval techniques like TESA or TESE, EEJ does not require surgery or anesthesia in most cases. The semen collected is immediately analyzed and used for assisted reproductive procedures or stored for future use.

EEJ is often the most reliable sperm retrieval method for men with spinal cord injuries or ejaculatory failure.

Learn if EEJ is right for you by scheduling a diagnostic consultation today.

Who is EEJ Recommended For in Saudi Arabia?

EEJ is recommended for men who experience anejaculation or severe ejaculatory dysfunction due to:

  • Spinal cord injury (paraplegia or quadriplegia)
  • Multiple sclerosis (MS)
  • Diabetic neuropathy
  • Retrograde ejaculation
  • Erectile dysfunction related to neurological damage
  • Congenital ejaculatory duct obstruction
  • Failed penile vibratory stimulation (PVS)

If you’re producing sperm but unable to ejaculate naturally, EEJ offers a non-surgical alternative to access viable sperm.

How the EEJ Procedure is Performed

At VIVILITY, EEJ is performed in a controlled, professional environment to ensure safety, comfort, and optimal sperm retrieval.

Here’s how the procedure works:

  1. Light anesthesia or sedation may be administered depending on the patient’s sensitivity
  2. A lubricated rectal probe is gently inserted
  3. Controlled electrical pulses stimulate the prostate and seminal vesicles
  4. This triggers ejaculation either outwardly or into the bladder (retrograde)
  5. The semen is collected and analyzed by our in-house embryology team
  6. If retrograde, sperm is recovered from the bladder and washed for use

The entire procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes and is done on an outpatient basis.

Types of Electroejaculation Offered

EEJ procedures may be adapted based on the patient’s condition and physical response:

1. EEJ Under Anesthesia

Used for patients with hypersensitivity or anxiety. Offers complete comfort during stimulation.

2. Conscious EEJ

Performed without anesthesia when the patient has reduced or no sensation.

3. Transrectal EEJ (Standard)

The most commonly used method involves a rectal probe.

4. Retrograde EEJ with Sperm Washing

For patients with retrograde ejaculation. Sperm is retrieved from urine and then prepared in the lab.

5. Penile Vibratory Stimulation (PVS)

Sometimes attempted before EEJ in less severe cases.

EEJ and Assisted Reproductive Techniques

The sperm retrieved via EEJ is often used in assisted reproductive treatments, such as:

  • ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) – Direct injection of a single sperm into the egg
  • IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) – Sperm and egg combined in the lab for embryo creation
  • IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) – Placing the sperm directly into the uterus
  • Sperm freezing – For future cycles or fertility preservation

Our lab evaluates sperm count, motility, and morphology immediately after retrieval to determine the best course of action.
