Patient's question:
My husband has been diagnosed with asthenozoospermia for a long time, and he is very distressed. Could you please ask the doctor, what exactly does it mean for a man to have asthenozoospermia?Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, after sperm mature, they need to rely on the effects of various active substances excreted by accessory glands to further obtain energy and maintain their ability to move forward actively. If organs such as the epididymis and accessory glands develop infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, or diseases related to testicular function and growth and development, etc., they are sufficient to weaken or even lose the forward motility of sperm. This condition is called asthenozoospermia. Confirming asthenozoospermia is very easy. Currently, most hospitals in our country conduct examinations according to international standards, and the results of sperm motility tests are clearly defined, with motility levels categorized into four standards: A, B, C, and D.
