Patient's question:
I've been trying to have a child but haven't been successful. I went to the hospital for a sperm quality test, and it showed no abnormalities. I consulted a doctor and was prescribed Eczosan and Levofloxacin tablets. After a month, another sperm quality test showed no improvement. Over the past two weeks, I've gone back to the hospital for a detailed examination. My daily routine has been stable—no long periods of sitting or overtime work for the past one or two months—but the results are still not ideal.The ultrasound, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, prostate, bilateral testicles, epididymis, and spermatic veins, showed no abnormalities. The sperm quality test revealed low motility, with a vitality rate of 52%.
Since it wasn't the same doctor who examined me before, the explanation wasn't very clear. I'd like to ask the doctors here if my condition is serious, what medications I should take, and whether this is bacterial or non-bacterial.
Doctor's answer:
Normal sperm vitality should be between 60% and 70%. If you haven't conceived, it's often related to low sperm vitality. Based on the detailed examination results you purchased, there are no signs of inflammation. It is recommended to change unhealthy lifestyle habits, avoid prolonged sitting and overtime work, quit smoking and drinking, and consume more warming and tonifying foods for the kidneys and Yang. Also, eat more foods rich in zinc and selenium. If possible, it's best to consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for pulse diagnosis and conditioning. Moderate exercise can also help enhance your physical fitness.
