Patient's question:
Friend has been married for over ten years without children. After a thorough examination, he was diagnosed with asthenozoospermia. Is this the meaning of low sperm viability? Can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
Azoospermia, also known as low sperm motility, refers to a condition where the percentage of forward-moving sperm (grades a and b) in semen parameters is below 50% or the percentage of grade a motile sperm is below 25%. Low sperm motility is one of the important causes of male infertility. During treatment, patients with low sperm motility must pay attention to correcting unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as abstaining from alcohol, avoiding alcohol consumption, eating fewer stimulating foods, and not overexerting themselves. At the same time, active treatment targeting the underlying cause should be carried out, such as actively treating urogenital infections. Additionally, supplementary treatments can be taken orally, including preparations containing various vitamins (especially zinc and selenium), calcium preparations, and ATP.
