Is male infertility related to psychological factors?

Patient's question:

I have been married to my husband for over three years, and we have never breastfed. However, I have not been able to get pregnant, and recently my husband has been under a lot of stress and really wants a child. But the doctor said my husband suffers from male infertility. What should I pay attention to?

Doctor's answer:

Autoimmune Factors: Due to sperm exposure to the immune system, antisperm antibodies are produced in the body to counteract the sperm. Ejected sperm undergo self-agglutination, making it unable to fertilize a woman. This is one of the reasons for male infertility. Infertility can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's treatment and appropriate medication are essential during the treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and refrain from smoking and drinking beer.
