Hello,
Your blood report shows increased FSH that means testicular failure .But there can be focal area of normal testis with spermatogenesis. In these type of cases TESA-ICSI is only option.But pregnancy rate is very low by these newer ART methods .Dont feel depressed . You can go for adoption or artificial insemination .

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
You will need more investigation like testicular biopsy - probably from more than one site
Histo pathological Examination can confirm
Andrologist (Urologist) is the specialist for further assessment and assistance
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
