Patient's question:
Previously, my wife had blocked fallopian tubes, so we couldn't have children. Now, more than six months after her surgery, there's still no sign of pregnancy. A few days ago, I went for a check-up, and the doctor told me it was my problem—I have male infertility. I'm feeling very desperate now. Could you please tell me how to prevent male infertility?Doctor's answer:
The cause of this disease is complex, and many diseases or factors can lead to male infertility. Based on the results of semen analysis, it can be classified as azoospermia, severe oligozoospermia, oligozoospermia, normozoospermic infertility, polyzoospermia, and asthenozoospermia. The causes of male infertility are summarized as follows:1. Chromosomal abnormalities. Common ones include male pseudohermaphroditism, Klinefelter syndrome, and XYY syndrome.
2. Endocrine diseases. The cause is a lack of gonadotropins. Common ones include selective gonadotropin dysfunction with hypogonadism, also known as Kallmann syndrome; selective LH deficiency and FSH deficiency; and adrenal cortical hyperplasia.
