Patient's question:
I am already quite old, but I still don't have any children. My wife's stomach still doesn't get bigger, and for this, the several elderly people in the family always complain about us, saying we never take things seriously. I also know this isn't right, so I went to the hospital for a check-up. The results showed that I suffer from blocked vas deferens.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Sperm duct obstruction can cause male infertility: 1. Congenital abnormalities: Undeveloped or poorly developed sperm ducts, or failure to connect with the epididymis, often accompanied by underdeveloped seminal vesicles, leading to a small amount of semen and no sperm. 2. Inflammatory stenosis: Various pathogens cause inflammation of the sperm duct, forming scars, resulting in occlusion of the lumen. Severe cases can lead to azoospermia. 3. Tumors: Tumors originating from the sperm duct itself or adjacent organs compressing the lumen are also factors or causes of azoospermia. Seek medical attention promptly if symptoms appear, as this is treatable. You don't need to be anxious. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
