Overcome Fertility
What is male infertility
Male infertility refers to a health condition in men that makes it harder for their female partner to get pregnant. It can happen for many reasons, and in more than one-third of infertility cases, the issue lies with the man. The most common reasons are problems with sperm production or getting the sperm to reach the egg.
causes
There are several causes of infertility that include both environmental, biological, and genetic factors. The causes include:
When the number of healthy sperm in the semen is below the normal level, it reduces the chance of fertilizing an egg.
If sperm can’t swim well, they may not be able to reach or penetrate the egg
Sperm with irregular shape may not be able to fertilize an egg effectively.
Problems with hormones like testosterone can affect sperm production and sexual function.
Swollen veins in the scrotum can raise testicle temperature and harm sperm quality.
Blockages in the tubes that carry sperm can prevent it from mixing with semen or being released.
Symptoms
Male infertility often leads to multiple symptoms that helps in early diagnosis of the condition. Common indications of male infertility include:
The most common sign is being unable to get a partner pregnant after a year of regular, unprotected sex.
Issues like reduced sex drive, erectile dysfunction, or trouble maintaining an erection can point to hormonal or reproductive issues.
This may be due to infections, varicoceles, or other conditions affecting sperm health.
A noticeable decrease in semen during ejaculation could indicate a blockage or problem with sperm production.
diagnostic procedures
Several tests are performed before detecting male infertility. Based on these diagnostic test results the course of treatment is confirmed. The common tests include
A minimum of two semen samples are collected on different days. The male infertility specialist checks each sample to see how much semen is produced, its thickness, and its acidity. They also examine the number of sperm, how well they move, and their shape.
Your doctor may do blood tests to check your hormone levels and look for other possible health issues.
The male fertility doctor will take a small sample of tissue from the testicles to check how well they are making sperm.
treatment
Male infertility treatments often involve multiple options that include both surgical and non-surgical. Based on the diagnostic results, treatment options are determined. But fortunately male infertility in most cases is treated without surgical options.
