Patient's question:
Some relatives have been urging us to have a baby. Recently, I found out that I have male infertility. Now, our whole family has contracted this disease. My partner wants to marry me, but the pressure is especially high, and there's some pain when I ejaculate. Which medications can cause male infertility?Doctor's answer:
Drug-induced male infertility: Common drugs include cimetidine, sulfasalazine, tripterygium wilfordii, spironolactone, nitrofurantoin, nilutamide, colchicine, various hormone drugs, and cancer chemotherapy drugs such as certain alkylating compounds, which can cause temporary or permanent harm to sperm development. Patients should first go to a local specialized hospital for examination and treatment. Additionally, pay attention to balancing rest and activity, and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
