What are the causes of infertility and what can be done about it?

Patient's question:

Before getting married, both my husband and I had thorough medical check-ups and were found to be healthy. However, after getting married, we have never had children. Upon further examination at the hospital, we discovered that my husband has male infertility. He was clearly healthy before, so what should we do?

Doctor's answer:

1. Abnormal sperm structure and seminal plasma abnormalities can interfere with sperm motility, capacitation, and acrosome reaction.
2. Immunological infertility: Antisperm antibodies produced by men themselves and those produced by women can interfere with sperm vitality and penetration into the egg.
3. Male sexual dysfunction, such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, anejaculation, and retrograde ejaculation, can all lead to male infertility. Infertility conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term oral medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is essential to seek professional and reputable medical treatment promptly, and treatment should be considered based on detailed examination results.
