Patient's question:

Testicular and epididymal examination showed no abnormalities, previously had varicocele but was surgically removed; after 3 months of re-examination, the deformity rate only decreased by 3%. No hormones or chemical drugs were used, and alcohol consumption was minimal. For some reason, the deformity rate is still so high.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: The factors or causes of teratozoospermia include urinary and genital tract infections, orchitis complicated by mumps, epididymal tuberculosis, varicocele, etc. They can all lead to an increase in abnormal sperm, typically including bifid sperm, which affects sperm quality. The use of hormones or certain chemical drugs, such as anticancer drugs, reserpine, busulfan, and furan derivatives, can cause sperm to develop immaturely. Radiation exposure to the gonads can cause mutations in sperm. Long-term high fever in the scrotum, chronic alcoholism (especially high-concentration spirits), can all cause sperm to become deformed. Wish you health!
