Patient's question:
Recently, after a series of examinations, I was diagnosed with asthenozoospermia. Could you please ask the doctor what are the causes of male asthenozoospermia?Doctor's answer:
Azoospermia refers to a condition where the percentage of progressively motile sperm (grades a and b) in semen parameters is less than 50% or the percentage of grade a motile sperm is less than 25%. Male infertility caused by low sperm motility accounts for approximately 30%. There are many causes that can lead to low sperm motility, but the most common ones include: excessively high or low environmental temperature for sperm, varicocele, inflammatory infections of the reproductive tract, immune suppression, endocrine disorders, many drugs that affect sperm development, radiation, as well as smoking and alcohol intoxication, etc.
