Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, but we've never had children. At first, I thought it was my wife's fault, so we both went for thorough medical examinations. It turned out that she was fine, and the doctor said it was due to my dead sperm syndrome that caused our infertility. That's why I feel very guilty.Doctor's answer:
If the sperm survival rate is found to be below 40%-50%, it can be defined as asthenozoospermia. The harm of asthenozoospermia is very strong, especially for men who are trying to conceive acutely, as it can severely interfere with fertility. Additionally, asthenozoospermia can cause significant psychological distress.Possible causes of asthenozoospermia include high temperatures, radiation, deficiencies in trace elements, and urological inflammation, among others. Among these, urological inflammation accounts for a large proportion of the pathological causes of asthenozoospermia. It is recommended to undergo a thorough examination at a formal infertility and subfertility specialty hospital. The condition of asthenozoospermia tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication.
For male patients, it is essential to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital as soon as possible. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination.
