Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I would like to ask what are the reasons for the formation of nonliquefying sperm? I have developed nonliquefying semen, and I don't know how I got this condition. We really want to have a child, but we can't get pregnant. Could this be related to the reason? How should I be treated? What are the reasons for the formation of nonliquefying sperm?Doctor's answer:
Hello: The coagulation of semen is caused by coagulation protein produced by the seminal vesicles. On the other hand, liquefaction is the result of a series of proteolytic enzymes secreted by the prostate, known as liquefaction factors. Therefore, if the prostate and seminal vesicles become inflamed, leading to dysfunction in their secretion, it can result in an increase in coagulation factors or a decrease in liquefaction factors, causing semen to fail to liquefy. When semen does not liquefy, sperm become trapped in a mucous network, hindering their motility in the female reproductive tract, which can lead to male infertility.Advice: Treatment must be targeted and tailored to each individual's specific condition and underlying cause to achieve faster results. It is recommended that you visit a reputable and professional "technological" infertility and sterility specialty hospital to undergo targeted examinations based on your personal circumstances. Under the guidance of a doctor, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Wishing you good health!
