Patient's question:
I got married to my wife, and we have never had children. Last month, under the urging of my mother-in-law, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The results showed that the problem was with me—I have male infertility. I feel really frustrated and also very self-conscious. Could you please tell me what precautions should be taken in the initial treatment for male infertility to improve the situation?Doctor's answer:
Principles of Male Infertility Treatment:1. Modify unhealthy lifestyle habits and enhance physical fitness. Patients should quit smoking, avoid alcohol, and refrain from spicy foods. Establish a good routine in daily life, diet, and living habits, enhance nutrition, and engage in moderate physical exercise.
2. Mutual cooperation between husband and wife. Maintain a moderate, effective, and harmonious sexual life. Avoid impatience when treating infertility. Both partners should work closely together, monitor the wife's ovulation period, and increase the frequency of sexual intercourse around the time of ovulation to enhance the chances of conception.
3. Follow the doctor's appropriate treatment. Infertility is a difficult-to-treat condition. Avoid relying on hearsay or taking un-prescribed supplements. Treatment should be conducted under the guidance of a specialist. Surgical treatment should be performed if suitable, and medication should be taken persistently if it is appropriate. Male infertility has complex causes and poses significant treatment challenges. Patients must seek timely treatment.
