Patient's question:
I checked my health, and I have been married for more than two years but still haven't been pregnant. The result shows that I have a blocked vas deferens. I don't know if this is the factor or cause leading to infertility, and I would like to learn more about it.Doctor's answer:
Hello, unilateral vas deferens obstruction has little impact on fertility, whereas bilateral obstruction, where sperm cannot be expelled normally, will lead to infertility.1) Urinary and reproductive system infections: Such as epididymitis, prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, or epididymal and vas deferens tuberculosis, which can cause obstructed vas deferens, more commonly at the junction of the epididymis and vas deferens.
2) Injuries: Such as inguinal hernia repair, varicocele surgery, or testicular tumor surgery, which can damage the vas deferens; hydroceles or spermatoceles surgery can damage the epididymis; prostate surgery can cause obstruction of the ejaculatory duct; or even without direct injury, postoperative infections, adhesions, or scar formation can compress or block the vas deferens.
3) Tumors: Such as epididymal tumors, seminal vesicle tumors, or prostate tumors, all of which can cause obstruction of the vas deferens.
4) Congenital malformations: Such as absence of the head, body, or tail of the epididymis, partial or complete absence of the vas deferens, non-connection between the vas deferens and epididymis, or underdevelopment of the epididymis, vas deferens, or seminal vesicles.
Recommendations:
It is recommended to undergo a detailed examination at the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, maintain local hygiene and cleanliness in daily life, get adequate rest, and engage in regular exercise. It is also advisable to take Jinghuo Su to comprehensively improve sperm quality, the number of normal-shaped sperm, motility, semen volume, semen liquefaction, and other sperm indicators, thereby increasing the chances of pregnancy.
Wishing you good health!
