Patient's question:
I previously had a girlfriend, and we couldn't get pregnant for 3 years. Later, she broke up with me and started a relationship with someone else, and she got pregnant immediately. I'm worried that I might have male infertility due to dead sperm, and I feel like the sky is falling. Could you please tell me: How is dead sperm usually treated?Doctor's answer:
The causes of oligospermia include some factors such as undescended testicles, varicocele, endocrine disorders, lack of vitamins and trace elements, infections by pathogenic microorganisms, and drug effects. In most cases of oligospermia, the cause can be identified through careful medical history inquiries, detailed physical examinations, and laboratory tests. Once the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment should be administered. It is absolutely necessary to avoid alcohol and smoking, to avoid staying up late, to avoid wearing excessively tight and elastic underwear, and to avoid hot baths. It is recommended to consume more lamb, chives, walnuts, mulberries, etc. Dead sperm can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor and appropriate medication are essential during the treatment.
