Patient's question:
I've been married for 4 years since the divorce, and my wife has never been pregnant. Our sex life has always been normal, but my wife has irregular menstruation and ovulation periods. When we went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, they said it was possible for her to get pregnant, but after 4 years, there's still no sign of it. My mother suggested I get a thorough check-up to see what's wrong. The results at the hospital showed that my semen doesn't liquefy. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculate does not liquefy due to a lack or destruction of protein hydrolase excretion, which leads to endocrine disorders in the enzyme system. This results in some patients' semen remaining unliquefied even after being placed for 1 hour, or liquefying incompletely with excessively high viscosity. In such cases, sperm cannot move, naturally leading to infertility. This condition is related to infections in the accessory glands causing dysfunction in the excretion of protein hydrolase, fibrinolytic enzyme, and semen liquefaction factor, making it impossible for semen to liquefy. It is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for a thorough examination. Based on the examination results, treatment should be administered under the guidance of a doctor. Male patients can, while undergoing conventional treatment, use folk remedies as supplementary therapy in daily life. A proper diet should be maintained in daily meals to avoid stimulating foods.
