Patient's question:
Married to my wife for many years, we never took any contraceptive measures, but we have never had children. After checking at the hospital, I was diagnosed with an illness. Please askDoctor's answer:
The reasons include: 1. Reproductive organ infection: Bacteria, viruses, protozoa, etc., can directly harm the testicles, leading to testicular atrophy, testicular tuberculosis, destruction of testicular tissue, severely interfering with sperm production ability and reducing sperm activity, resulting in infertility. For example, 20% of individuals who suffer from mumps before the early stage of puberty develop secondary testicular inflammation, leading to infertility. 2. Postnatal testicular injury: Procedures such as hernia repair surgery, hydrocele surgery, and testicular fixation surgery can damage testicular blood vessels, obstruct blood supply, and cause testicular atrophy. 3. Obstruction of sperm transport: Tuberculosis of the epididymis and vas deferens can block the vas deferens, hindering the passage of sperm. Sexual dysfunctions such as impotence and premature ejaculation cannot allow sperm to enter the female vagina.
