Patient's question:
Hello everyone, my husband has low sperm count and poor motility. After taking the sperm-enhancing pills for two months, the total quantity increased, but the quality didn't improve, and the motility remained poor. It was only discovered during a blood test that he has diabetes, and he is now taking medication for it. His testicular ultrasound is normal, and his prostate has also been checked with no issues. His testosterone levels are normal as well. He is inactive and has recently started exercising. He has also started taking zinc supplements to boost his health. Can a stable diet lower sperm viability?Doctor's answer:
Low sperm vitality rate reasons:1. Iatrogenic factors: varicocele, hyperprolactinemia, gonadal dysfunction, etc. The cause should be identified first, followed by symptomatic treatment;
2. Non-iatrogenic factors: environmental pollution, age, overwork, smoking, etc. It is important to promptly adjust lifestyle, maintain regular routines, prevent overwork, quit smoking, limit alcohol consumption, engage in appropriate exercise, and reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods. Sperm quality can be improved through exercise, diet, personal hygiene, etc. Regular re-examination of semen is essential.
Facing the harm of male diseases, we should promptly implement symptomatic treatment principles and avoid delaying medical consultation. If male diseases are not cured after prolonged treatment, it is necessary to promptly switch treatment plans.
