How are patients with male infertility treated?

Patient's question:

I've been married for two years and haven't had any children yet, which has been making me very upset. My wife suggested we go to the hospital for a check-up. After a thorough examination, the doctor said I have male infertility. I felt very upset, but my wife remained calm and kept comforting and encouraging me. For her own health, I want to know how to treat male infertility and what precautions to take.

Doctor's answer:

Treatment includes two aspects: etiological treatment and symptomatic treatment.
1. Medication treatment commonly uses human chorionic gonadotropin and clomiphene.
2. Surgical treatment is required for varicoceles accompanied by abnormal semen parameters, which involves high ligation of the spermatic vein. Orchiopexy is performed for undescended testicles or testicular atrophy to improve the testicular spermatogenic function. Infertility is prone to recurrence. Long-term medication is necessary. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek professional and regular medical treatment promptly. Treatment should be considered based on detailed examination results. Additionally, appropriate diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained.
