Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for a while, 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 tests are involved in diagnosing male infertility?Doctor's answer:
If a man has infertility, he should undergo a thorough examination: routine semen analysis, seminal plasma super-, male-related endocrine tests, pathogenic microorganism tests related to male perinatal urinary system infections, and so on. Once the disease occurs, it is important to treat it promptly, identify the specific cause, and determine the treatment method based on individual constitution and the severity of the condition. It is crucial not to use medication blindly or without medical advice to avoid developing drug resistance and to promote complete recovery from the disease. In daily life, it is also necessary to avoid unsafe sexual practices and reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods. Under the guidance of a doctor, additional tests should be conducted to identify the cause and implement targeted treatment to prevent missing the opportunity for recovery and ensure complete recovery from the disease.
