Patient's question:
Actually, I knew I was infertile last year, but I never dared to tell my wife, afraid she would divorce me. I secretly took many medications and visited many doctors, but nothing worked. Now my wife is forcing me to go to the hospital for a check-up, and I am really troubled. Please ask: How should dead sperm be treated, and what is a relatively safe method?Doctor's answer:
Male infertility is primarily caused by dead sperm, a condition known as asthenozoospermia, where the percentage of dead sperm increases, exceeding 40%, or even most sperm in the semen are dead, with a sperm survival rate of 0. Dead sperm is a common issue in male infertility; although it does not interfere with normal sexual activity, it hinders conception. The causes of asthenozoospermia include: a deficiency in kidney qi, or a naturally weak constitution with insufficient innate kidney qi, early childbirth, irregular sexual habits, excessive sexual activity, or sexual exhaustion that damages kidney qi, leading to dysfunction in sperm production and nourishment, resulting in an increasing number of dead sperm. It is recommended that you visit a reputable and professional infertility hospital to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment, which will yield better results. Wishing you early pregnancy.
