Patient's question:
Hello, I've been married for several years and haven't been able to get pregnant. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with sperm not liquefying. What are the causes of this condition?Doctor's answer:
Reason 1: Long-term excessive alcohol consumption and spicy food intake can lead to damp-heat accumulation, which, when prolonged and collected in the bladder, prostate, seminal vesicle, or seminal colliculus, can easily cause semen to fail to liquefy.Reason 2: A lack of trace elements, insufficient fibrinolytic enzyme activity, or congenital absence of the prostate can trigger sperm liquefaction disorders. Additionally, many inflammatory and infectious diseases can lead to enzyme deficiencies, such as seminal vesiculitis or prostatitis. Once seminal vesiculitis or prostatitis occurs, it may cause an increase in coagulation factors or a rise in vaporization factors, resulting in semen liquefaction disorders.
