Later, we found out that I had male infertility. I didn't understand male infertility and didn't know what caused it. What are the causes of male infertility?Doctor's answer:
The main causes of male infertility include:1. Male reproductive tract infections: Epididymitis, severe prostatitis, viral infections, etc.;
2. Abnormal semen: Male azoospermia, oligozoospermia, asthenozoospermia, necrozoospermia, and semen nonliquefaction, etc.;
3. Spermatogenesis disorders: Such as varicocele, congenital testicular developmental abnormalities, cryptorchidism, orchitis or testicular atrophy, endocrine diseases, and other factors, can all lead to a decrease in sperm count, reduced motility, or abnormal sperm morphology, resulting in infertility.
