Patient's question:

What to do about dead sperm What to do about dead sperm

Doctor's answer:

Asthenozoospermia refers to a condition where sperm vitality is reduced, with dead sperm accounting for more than 40%, or even most of the sperm in the semen being dead, resulting in a sperm survival rate of 0. The causes of asthenozoospermia include:
1. Inflammation of the sexual reproductive organs can cause congestion and edema in the reproductive organs, leading to blood stasis and cerebral edema, which may result in sperm nearing death.
2. In chronic seminal colliculus inflammation, fructose excretion is reduced, causing sperm to near death.
3. In testicular inflammation, epididymitis, or prostatitis, especially chronic prostatitis, excretion is affected, and at the same time, trace element zinc levels decline, which can impair sperm decomposition metabolism and lead to sperm nearing death.
It is recommended that you undergo further thorough examination to identify the specific cause for targeted treatment. Wishing you good health!
