Patient's question:
Infertility, routine semen analysis revealed a sperm deformity rate as high as 77%. What could be the reason? My sexual ability is very strong. I'm 35 years old, and I don't feel lower back pain even after having sex for several days in a row. I got married at 31.Doctor's answer:
Hello: The normal abnormal rate of sperm in semen is less than 30%. Broadly speaking, the main causes of abnormal and deformed sperm are related to congenital testicular dysgenesis, varicocele, epididymal tuberculosis, chronic poisoning, malnutrition, excessive mental stress, and frequent sexual intercourse, among others. Additionally, excessive alcohol consumption and long-term drinking of high-alcohol-content spirits can damage the function of spermatogenic cells, interfere with sperm growth and maturation, and cause sperm deformity. Radiation exposure can also affect spermatogenic cells. Spermatocyte mutations are related to the intensity and duration of exposure. Wearing tight pants for a long time and excessive heat exposure to the scrotum can also lead to sperm deformation. Many drugs, such as Myleran, furans, anticancer drugs, and hydralazine, can interfere with the division of spermatogonia and the maturation of sperm, also causing sperm deformity. Wishing you good health!
