Patient's question:
Doctor, my friend has been married for twenty years without having children. I would like to ask what are the causes of male infertility?Doctor's answer:
Males can be infertile due to many reasons. Common causes include congenital deficiency, insufficient kidney essence; insufficient kidney qi, loose sperm passage, or depleted kidney essence leading to involuntary leakage, or excessive sexual activity causing the kidneys to fail to store essence, or emotional stress causing endocrine imbalance of qi and essence, etc. In summary, the causes of this condition are not separated from the kidneys, kidney essence, qi deficiency, leading to kidney yang deficiency, kidney yin deficiency, or both kidney yin and yang deficiency. Infertility is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is necessary to immediately go to a professional and regular hospital for diagnosis, and treatment should be considered based on the results of careful examinations. Also, pay attention to proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
