Is male infertility mainly a problem with sperm?

Patient's question:

I've been married for over a year, and my husband and I have never used contraception, but we haven't been able to get pregnant. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, everything was normal—my periods, ovulation, etc.—it wasn't my problem. The doctor asked my husband to get a semen analysis done, and the results showed low sperm motility at only 45%, along with poor sperm liquefaction. The doctor prescribed some medication for us to take first.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: The causes or factors leading to male infertility are often abnormal semen, such as azoospermia, necrospermia, oligospermia, abnormal sperm morphology caused by reproductive system diseases, and semen non-liquefaction. Additionally, obstruction of the spermatic duct, abnormal ejaculation function, and erectile dysfunction can prevent normal sexual activity and affect conception. It is recommended that you visit a formal urological hospital for examination. Combined with detailed laboratory tests, the root cause can be identified, and treatment should be followed according to medical advice. Wishing you good health.
