Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for many years, and we have not used any contraception, but we have never been able to conceive. After checking at the hospital, I learned that the semen does not liquefy. How should it be treated for the best results?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculate coagulation is one of the common conditions in male infertility. There are many reasons that can cause it, and usually, symptomatic treatment is necessary to be effective. Common causes of semen coagulation include seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis, which lead to insufficient secretion of fibrinolytic enzymes by the prostate; deficiency of trace elements (such as magnesium, zinc, etc.); congenital absence of the prostate, and so on. For herbal medicine treatment, it also depends on the underlying cause. Some cases can be cured with herbal medicine alone, while others require a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. It is best to go to a hospital for a thorough examination and treatment based on the specific condition. In addition to medication for male reproductive health issues, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, patients should choose a professional hospital for diagnosis to achieve better treatment outcomes.
