Patient's question:
After death, can sperm survive? The incident occurred at 18:30, and the sperm was placed in a cold storage around 21:40. How can sperm be extracted in case of azoospermia?Doctor's answer:
Infertility due to dead sperm refers to a condition where multiple semen analyses show no abnormal sperm morphology and the sperm density is within the normal range, but the majority of the sperm are dead. Under normal circumstances, more than 70% of viable sperm should remain in the semen within 1 hour of ejaculation. If dead sperm exceed 40%, it can affect fertility, which is commonly referred to as abnormal sperm syndrome. Once dead sperm occurs, the chances of female conception are significantly reduced, as the absence of egg and sperm combination can lead to female infertility.
