Patient's question:
My friend mentioned a few days ago that he recently noticed his semen had turned yellow, possibly due to inflammation in his body. Later, he went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor told him he had a condition called necrospermia. I heard that necrospermia refers to a decrease in sperm viability, with most of the sperm being dead, which can lead to infertility. Is that correct? What kind of men are prone to developing necrospermia?Doctor's answer:
Patients with long-standing perinatal urinary system infections. Sperm motility is directly related to the fructose contained in the seminal vesicles. If perinatal urinary tract infection is not cured for a long time, it may lead to changes in seminal fluid composition, such as increased fructose and zinc, decreased pH value, and increased fructose with nutritional deficiency, resulting in higher sperm mortality. As well as patients with chronic diseases. Varicocele, chronic prostatitis history, orchitis, seminal vesiculitis, etc. Necrospermia can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment.
