Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I would like to consult about the methods for treating asthenozoospermia. I was diagnosed with asthenozoospermia a year after getting married. Later, I also went through a series of tonifying the kidneys medications, but the condition has not been cured despite long-term treatment, and this issue is causing me great distress. The doctors have not come up with any effective methods to treat it. I would like to ask, what are the methods for treating asthenozoospermia?Doctor's answer:
Hello, asthenozoospermia is defined as the percentage of rapidly forward-moving sperm (Grade A) and slightly slower forward-moving sperm (Grade B) being less than 50% or the percentage of Grade A sperm being less than 25%. Common causes of asthenozoospermia include: 1. Incomplete maturation or damage and thinning of the seminiferous 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, the pH, oxygen supply, nutrition, and metabolism are all unfavorable for sperm activity and survival. If antisperm antibodies are present, they can cause sperm agglutination, thereby reducing their motility. It is recommended that individuals with such conditions seek early and scientific regulation from reputable infertility clinics.
