What are the causes of male infertility?

Men hold a vital influence in women's creations. Men need to provide high-quality, healthy sperm to make women pregnant. However, some men suffer from infertility due to problems with their male sperm. So what are the causes of male infertility? If you don't know, just follow the editor of Mawang and take a look.

1. Abnormalities in male semen

Abnormal semen is a very important cause of male infertility, which mainly includes oligospermia, oligozoospermia, asthenozoospermia, ejaculation bleeding, abnormal sperm and dead sperm, etc., especially oligoasthenozoospermia infertility, azoospermia infertility, dead sperm infertility and hematospermia infertility are the more important causes. Infertility caused by this kind of reason is more difficult to treat.

2. Obstacles to men’s sperm production

Factors such as varicose veins, congenital suboptimal testicular development, cryptorchidism, orchitis or testicular atrophy, endocrine disorders, etc. can all cause reduced sperm density, reduced sperm motility, or malformation of male sperm, leading to infertility. It is also difficult to treat infertility caused by these reasons.

3. Men’s insemination encounters obstacles

Obstacles in men's insemination can also cause infertility, such as epididymal cysts, ejaculatory ducts, vas deferens and urethra disease, which can cause obstruction of sperm transport. Clinically, it usually manifests as obstructive azoospermia, which directly affects men's fertility. The treatment of infertility caused by this situation mainly focuses on repairing the ability of the ejaculatory ducts to transport semen. Compared with the previous two causes of infertility, the hope of this type of treatment is relatively large.

4. Men’s ejaculation disorder

Such as erectile dysfunction, external reproductive diseases, trauma, or even the inability to have sexual intercourse, premature ejaculation, reverse ejaculation, etc. Semen cannot enter the female reproductive system, nor can it cause pregnancy. Infertility caused by this kind of reason can be improved if it is treated proactively.

5. Other factors

In addition to the above key factors, male infertility is also caused by immune system disease factors, disease factors, etc., such as excessive antigenicity of male sperm, seminal vesiculitis, prostatitis, prostacyclin abnormalities, etc., long-term sexual smoking, alcoholism, etc., which can all cause male infertility. Infertility caused by this type of cause can usually be cured as long as the cause of the disease is removed.
