What are the causes of male infertility?

Patient's question:

My husband and I have been divorced for over two years and have never had children. We started to think it was my fault, but later we both went to the hospital for thorough examinations. The doctor said my husband has male infertility. He was very upset about it and felt that he was incompetent. What caused it?

Doctor's answer:

Actually, there are many causes of male infertility, not fewer than a hundred. Common issues include abnormal sperm conditions, such as azoospermia (no sperm), oligozoospermia (low sperm count), low sperm vitality, and sperm that do not liquefy. Other causes include blocked vas deferens, inflammation of the reproductive system, male immune infertility, and infertility caused by sexual dysfunction. Infertility can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medications appropriately, and adopt a healthy lifestyle with proper diet during the treatment period.
