Patient's question:
My cousin has been feeling unwell recently and went to the hospital for a check-up. They said he has male infertility. He looks very worn out now. What are the common treatments for male infertility?Doctor's answer:
Preventing adverse environmental factors is important because many cases of infertility are caused by environmental factors that affect the testicular spermatogenesis function. Exposure to radiation, chemical products, heavy metals, and high-temperature work, for example, can quickly damage spermatogenic cells in sensitive individuals, preventing sperm from developing properly. If the case is confirmed to be caused by such factors, it is essential to avoid further exposure or take precautions to prevent it, which can help in the complete recovery of existing damage.Infertility can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the specific symptoms. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt healthy lifestyle habits and maintain a balanced diet during the treatment period.
