Patient's question:
How many years have you been married, your wife has always been unable to get pregnant. Today, she finally got pregnant but accidentally miscarried. When she went to the hospital for a check-up, she found out that she had suffered from asthenozoospermia.Doctor's answer:
Hello: In asthenozoospermia, sperm lack forward motility and struggle to pass through the cervical canal and uterine cavity to reach the fallopian tubes for fertilization with an egg, resulting in reduced fertility. Common factors or causes of asthenozoospermia include: 1. Incomplete maturation or damage to the spermatogenic epithelium in the testes, leading to poor sperm quality and weak motility; 2. Low seminal fluid volume; 3. Variations in seminal plasma, such as when the epididymis, seminal vesicles, or prostate are inflamed, which can negatively affect sperm motility and survival due to changes in pH, oxygen supply, nutrition, and metabolism. If antisperm antibodies are present, they can cause sperm agglutination, rendering them immobile. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a specialized hospital before attempting conception. Wishing you good health!
