Patient's question:
I got married this year, but my family members expect me to quickly carry on the family line. However, my wife has been unable to conceive, and she has been diagnosed with necrospermia and oligospermia. How should necrospermia be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the issue of the harm caused by dead sperm needs to be taken seriously. Dead sperm syndrome refers to a condition where multiple semen analyses show no abnormal sperm morphology, and the sperm density is within the normal range, but the majority of sperm are dead. Under normal circumstances, more than 70% of viable sperm should remain in the semen within 1 hour of ejaculation. If dead sperm exceed 40%, it can affect fertility. It is recommended that if dead sperm constitute the majority, one should seek early diagnosis at a formal infertility clinic and then undergo proper treatment. Dead sperm indicate low sperm viability, meaning that within 1 hour of ejaculation, the sperm motility rate is less than 50%. Dead sperm may not necessarily show any symptoms, and a diagnosis must be made through examination. The greatest harm of dead sperm syndrome is that it may lead to infertility, and it should not be taken lightly.
