Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 28 years old this year, and my wife is 25. We have been divorced for 2 years and still don't have any children. Both my wife and I are very eager to have a child. My wife secretly went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the results were normal. This clearly indicates it is my problem. How can infertility be treated?Doctor's answer:
First, it is necessary to identify the cause. According to etiology, the main factors contributing to male infertility are as follows: abnormal semen, testicular abnormalities, acquired testicular damage, obstructed sperm transport, hydrocele, endocrine factors, hereditary factors, etc. To treat infertility caused by male factors, it is essential to first determine the true cause of the infertility and adopt targeted treatments based on the cause. This helps avoid misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment, which could worsen the condition and increase the patient's psychological and financial burden. Infertility caused by male factors tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication treatment.
