Patient's question:
Doctor, my friend recently underwent a thorough examination and was found to have azoospermia (absence of sperm in the semen). Is this condition serious? How is azoospermia treated? Which hospital is considered authoritative in treating this condition? What precautions should be taken when diagnosed with this disease? Should there be any dietary considerations?Doctor's answer:
Treatment for azoospermia first requires visiting local departments such as urology and perinatal medicine for follow-up examinations. It is important to clearly diagnose the cause of azoospermia—whether it is congenital or acquired. Many local hospitals and urology hospitals are authoritative in treating this condition. Firstly, this disease requires attention to rest and enhanced nutrition in daily life. Avoid excessive hot water use, such as hot baths, as high temperatures can damage sperm. In terms of diet, avoid consuming too many overly spicy and irritating foods, and instead, eat more foods rich in zinc and lysine.
