Patient's question:
Hello doctor, recently during sexual activity, there was very little sperm, so I would like to know what are the causes of oligospermia?Doctor's answer:
Causes of Oligospermia: Common causes of oligospermia include:(1) Autoimmune factors: Sperm antibodies can interfere with sperm production and transport.
(2) Varicocele, hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis: Due to impaired venous (venous return obstruction), testicular temperature drops, disrupting spermatogenesis.
(3) Inflammation of the reproductive tract.
(4) Testicular dysgenesis or cryptorchidism.
(5) Chromosomal abnormalities.
(6) Endocrine disorders.
(7) Physical and chemical factors: High temperatures, radiation, exposure to chemicals, etc.
