Patient's question:
I am healthy, but after being married for more than three years, my wife's stomach hasn't shown any. She had a thorough check-up at the hospital last week and said there were no problems, asking me to get checked as well. However, I don't have the courage to do it. I feel like I should be fine, but I want to know what the incidence of male infertility is.Doctor's answer:
The etiology of male infertility can be classified based on fertility into absolute infertility (azoospermia) and relative infertility (low sperm count or poor sperm motility, etc.). According to clinical manifestations, it can be divided into primary infertility and secondary infertility. Based on the location of inflammation in the sexual organs, it can be classified as pre-testicular, testicular, and post-testicular. Infertility is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication for maintenance. Moreover, for male patients, it is essential to seek professional and reputable medical treatment immediately. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
