What are the main culprits of infertility? Any disease has a cause! Only by finding the cause can one be completely cured! Otherwise, any method would be useless! So male infertility is not a major illness, overcoming our own illnesses is victory! It's also a man's pride!
Top 1: Environmental factors such as haze, the main culprit of male infertility
Haze is one of the reasons for the rapid increase in infertility in couples. "Experts analyze that on the one hand, haze contains heavy metals such as lead and manganese, which can affect the quality of male sperm; On the other hand, haze can affect a person's respiratory system, organ function, etc., which directly affects the secretion of male testosterone hormone, thereby affecting fertility.
Male testis and spermatogenic function are sensitive to some heavy metals. Toxic substances in haze have a killing effect on male spermatid. Spermatid is a Archaeocyte, which has the ability of self-protection. It feels that there are more toxic ingredients in the blood, and it is in a dormant state. Overreplication requires a lot of substances in the blood to metabolize, so once it is dormant, it cannot play a reproductive role.
It can also be seen from clinical practice that the number of male infertility patients in the surrounding area is increasing. The high rate of IVF in China also indicates a decline in male reproductive function. When testing male reproductive ability, there is a set of standard values for sperm count. Originally, a single ejaculation of 100 million sperm was considered normal, which decreased from 60 million four years ago to 20 million two years ago. The decrease in comparison values is relatively fast, which also indicates that it has become more difficult to conceive the next generation in recent years.
In addition, many men with unexplained oligospermia may not only be related to haze, but also to air pollution, water pollution, and radiation pollution, especially radiation pollution such as mobile phones and WIFI.
Male infertility culprit Top2: reproductive and urinary tract infections
Infection leading to male infertility also accounts for a certain proportion of infertile patients. Male reproductive tract infections can often cause orchitis, epididymitis, prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, urethritis, etc. Pathogens causing genital tract infection include gonococcus, tubercle bacillus, virus, mycoplasma, Chlamydia trachomatis, trichomonas, among which mycoplasma and chlamydia are the most common.
All reproductive tract infections can affect sperm production, sperm motility and sperm transportation, and have a great impact on male fertility. However, most patients are not aware of the severity of infection. During the treatment process, they often stop treatment without authorization when their condition improves slightly, and the consequences are unimaginable.
Top 3: Congenital Genital Malformation: The culprit of male infertility
Cryptorchidism is the most common congenital organ abnormality, which is the absence of testicles in the scrotum. It includes incomplete testicular descent, ectopic testicles, and so on. The testicles stay in the abdominal cavity and are exposed to relatively high temperatures, which hinders their growth and gradually shrinks, making them unable to produce sperm and lacking fertility. It should be noted that if the testicles stay in the abdominal cavity, the chances of developing malignant tumors will greatly increase. Therefore, cryptorchidism should be highly valued and corrected as soon as possible. Generally speaking, one should go to the hospital for surgery if they do not decline after the age of one.
