Patient's question:
Lately, I've been feeling uncomfortable, and I don't know if it's because I've been cohabiting for a long time. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and was diagnosed with blocked vas deferens. No wonder I can't have children. What are the dangers of blocked vas deferens?Doctor's answer:
Epididymal obstruction refers to the recurrence of blockage in the ejaculation pathway, preventing the injection of sperm from flowing smoothly, thereby unable to reach the uterine cavity to fertilize the female egg, resulting in the failure to form a fertilized egg, which ultimately leads to the inability to deliver, thus causing male infertility. Therefore, it can be seen that epididymal obstruction can lead to infertility. The infertility caused by epididymal obstruction is a relatively common phenomenon in clinical diagnosis. In this case, most of the time, it is manifested as azoospermia during examination. However, it is essential to identify the underlying cause upon diagnosis, as developmental issues such as chromosomal abnormalities can also result in similar outcomes.
