Patient's question:
I'm about to have a child, and we've been married for three or four years. I went to the hospital for a pre-pregnancy check-up a couple of days ago, and the results carefully revealed that I have low sperm count. I don't know if this means I can't get pregnant. What happens if low sperm count is detected in a pre-pregnancy check-up? How can it be treated?Doctor's answer:
If pre-pregnancy tests reveal that a man has weak sperm, the goal is to identify the cause of the weak sperm. Only then can the appropriate treatment be determined. It is important to note that the reasons for male weak sperm are complex. It could be due to underdeveloped testicular function, or it may be related to prostate diseases. It could also be influenced by long-term exposure to high-temperature, high-humidity, and radiation training environments, which affects semen quality, or it could be the result of long-term medication use that impacts testicular function.
