Patient's question:
What should men with asthenozoospermia (low sperm quality) due to infertility do? Can it be treated?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to first undergo a thorough test of sex hormones and a detailed ultrasound examination of the reproductive organs. If the sex hormone results are normal and the testicular volume is also normal, treatment can be initiated. Blood tests can also be performed to reflect the spermatogenesis status within the testes.Recommendation: Normal sex hormone levels suggest a high likelihood of spermatogenesis function within the testes. Testicular biopsy can also be conducted. If spermatogenic cells are present in the testes, there is hope for treatment. However, if it is a case of Sertoli cell-only syndrome with no spermatogenic cells, there is no expectation, and only sperm from a sperm bank can be used for conception.
