Patient's question:
The sperm has always been particularly scarce and not viscous. The hospital examination said it is infertility.Doctor's answer:
The causes of male infertility are complex, and many diseases or factors can lead to it. In cases of male infertility with normal sexual function, it is primarily caused by abnormal semen, with various reasons as follows:1. Environmental factors: Physical factors such as vibration, radiation, and heat; chemical factors such as aluminum, trace elements, pesticides, and organic solvents; as well as mycoplasma, chlamydia, bacteria, and viruses—all can produce reproductive toxicity in the male reproductive system.
2. Age factors: Around the age of 30, the testicular tissue in men begins to degenerate, and fertility gradually declines with age.
3. Diseases: Conditions such as undescended testicles, varicocele, chromosomal abnormalities, and other factors can lead to impaired spermatogenesis, epididymitis, seminal vesiculitis, prostatitis, tuberculosis of the reproductive organs, abnormal semen, necrospermia, azoospermia, asthenozoospermia, prolonged semen liquefaction time, increased abnormal sperm count, and the formation of antisperm antibodies. Among these, infertility caused by reproductive tract infections is relatively common. In recent years, with the increase in the incidence of sexually transmitted diseases, the prevalence and severity of reproductive tract infections such as prostatitis, epididymitis, orchitis, and urethritis have also risen, severely affecting male fertility.
4. Personal behaviors: Poor lifestyle habits are also important causes of infertility. For example, smoking, drug abuse, excessive alcohol consumption, chronic alcoholism, poor sleep habits, and a history of promiscuity not only affect sexual function but are also associated with reduced sperm production.
5. Immune infertility: Antisperm immunity produced by the male body and antisperm heterologous immunity produced by the female can both lead to male infertility.
Now you know why men suffer from infertility. The formation of male infertility is directly related to the daily habits of men. If any abnormal symptoms appear, they should seek treatment from a regular hospital as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary complications.
