Patient's question:
Hello, I would like to ask what are the causes of abnormal sperm? I'm about to get married and had a pre-marital health check-up at the hospital. The results were heart-wrenching, saying my sperm had abnormal heads. I don't know why this problem occurred and would like to understand what the causes of this issue are so I can pay attention to these aspects in the future. What are the reasons that cause abnormal sperm?Doctor's answer:
Varicocele, occupational or environmental exposure to toxins, radiation, microwaves, improper medication use, food contamination, infection, and stress are factors that can severely affect the process of sperm production in the testes, leading to abnormal sperm. For cases caused by reproductive tract infections, anti-inflammatory treatment can be administered. For those resulting from endocrine abnormalities, endocrine function adjustment should be provided. Surgical intervention should be considered for patients.2. The treatment of infertility caused by high rates of abnormal sperm should be based on the cause of the abnormal sperm, eliminating unfavorable factors (such as drugs, radiation, high temperatures, alcohol), and treating the underlying cause. If the proportion of abnormal sperm exceeds half, a karyotype test should be conducted.
