Patient's question:
What are the common misunderstandings about the treatment of asthenozoospermia? Recently, I had a thorough examination at the hospital and was told I have asthenozoospermia. If it is not treated in time, it may interfere with fertility. It is widely believed that there are common misunderstandings about the treatment of asthenozoospermia, and I am worried that I might fall into these misunderstandings. Therefore, I want to understand them better. I would like to ask the doctor what are the common misunderstandings about the treatment of asthenozoospermia.Doctor's answer:
Although male infertility can bring a series of adverse effects to patients, many patients are misled, resulting in the failure to promptly cure male infertility. Below, we will explain the common misconceptions about male infertility:1. Ejaculated semen being equivalent to azoospermia: This view is incorrect; in fact, there are many reasons that can cause male infertility.
2. Azoospermia requires a testicular biopsy: For patients with obstructive azoospermia, a testicular biopsy can damage normal testicular function.
3. No sperm found in semen analysis means azoospermia: A single semen analysis showing no sperm cannot immediately be diagnosed as azoospermia.
