Dear sir, there is two types of azoospermia
the first is obstructive azoospermia in which production of sperms are normal but there is an abstruction to the pathway.. this can be cured by removing the obstruction
the second is non obstructive azoospermia in which sperm production is impaired. in this case the only way for parenthood is to take a testicular biopsy and extract sperms from it and undergo an assisted reproduction cycle by ICSI
