Patient's question:
Married for many years, I have never been able to conceive a child. The hospital examination said I suffer from male infertility. Can male infertility be cured?Doctor's answer:
Male infertility is mostly caused by poor semen quality, so a semen analysis is a necessary examination for every patient. For issues found in the semen analysis, some require further investigation to determine their cause. For example, if there are no sperm in the semen, blood hormone tests or a testicular biopsy may be needed to assess the testicular sperm production function. For patients suspected of having blocked vas deferens, a vasography is required to understand whether there is a blockage, its extent, and its location. For patients with sexual development abnormalities or a history of multiple miscarriages, a chromosomal test may be necessary.
