Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I want to ask you how to treat low sperm vitality. Now we are trying to have a child, and there are no symptoms either. But after a check-up, it was found that the sperm vitality is low.Doctor's answer:
Hello:Low survival rate may be considered as asthenozoospermia, which refers to a reduction in sperm viability, with dead sperm accounting for more than 40%, or even most sperm in the semen being dead, resulting in a sperm survival rate of 0. The causes of asthenozoospermia include: 1. Inflammation of the sexual reproductive organs can cause congestion and edema in these organs, leading to blood stasis, ischemia, and hypoxia, which in turn cause sperm death. 2. In chronic seminal vesiculitis, fructose secretion decreases, leading to sperm death. 3. In conditions such as orchitis, epididymitis, and prostatitis, especially chronic prostatitis, the secretion is affected, and the level of trace element zinc declines, which then impacts sperm metabolism and causes death. The main manifestations include: Most patients have a history of prostatitis, orchitis, or seminal vesiculitis, while some have premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, or low libido. Signs: Semen does not liquefy. This requires diagnosis at a specialized hospital to identify the underlying cause scientifically, and different treatment plans can be adopted based on the specific cause of the dead sperm. Wishing you good health!
