This is a romantic love story about Amin and Xiaoli. Amin is a successful entrepreneur, and Xiaoli is his right-hand man. After four years of marriage, they have achieved great success in their careers and treat each other with respect. Even if a loving couple stays together for a long time, their days will feel dull. For four years, they have been thinking about having their own baby day and night, but they don't know when their dreams will come true.
Two years ago, due to infertility, Xiaoli went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with irregular menstruation. After taking traditional Chinese medicine for six months, her menstrual period was confirmed, but she was unable to conceive. I went to the hospital for examination and the doctor suspected that it was immune infertility caused by unknown reasons, but after a long period of treatment, I still did not conceive. They are confused, what's wrong with us? Why can't we conceive and have our own child? Is this fate?
Amin and Xiaoli were introduced by a friend to Beijing Tianqiao Hospital, and Wang Wenlong received them. After listening to their detailed medical history statement, Director Wang decided to first examine Qiang's semen and conduct a systematic examination including CASA semen analysis for Qiang. After analyzing the parameters of strong semen quantity, liquefaction time, vitality, and activity rate, Director Wang found that his semen had a long liquefaction time, poor sperm motility, and a high deformity rate.
Based on Director Wang's years of clinical practice experience, this examination result clearly suggests a strong possibility of suffering from prostatitis. As expected, after microbial cultivation, it was confirmed that the patient had a strong case of prostatitis caused by Mycoplasma. After 2 months of professional "intracavitary ablation" treatment, Aming's prostatitis was cured. Next, we specially treated him with traditional Chinese medicine to improve the quality of his semen. Six months later, the quality of strong sperm significantly improved, and two months later, there was good news of Li's pregnancy.
Decreased semen quality directly affects fertility
Sperm is a male germ cell. To have a healthy and intelligent baby, as a husband, one must first have high-quality sperm. According to authoritative statistics, in the past half century, the amount of male semen has decreased by nearly 25%, from 3.4 milliliters to 2.5 milliliters. The sperm density has been almost diluted by half, and the number of sperm per milliliter has decreased from 113 million to 66 million. As is well known, male fertility is to some extent related to sperm density, quality, and semen volume, and a decrease in semen quality may lead to a decrease in male fertility.
Director Wang said that the reason for this change cannot be attributed to the influence of genetic factors on the male gonad, but to environmental or lifestyle factors. The following numerous environmental and lifestyle factors can lead to a decrease in sperm quality and quantity, as well as a decrease in sperm deformity or motility, directly affecting fertility. Exposure to high radiation conditions: prolonged exposure to computers and television can lead to direct damage to the testicles, thereby affecting the quantity and quality of sperm, such as in the IT industry.
Chemical agents: inconspicuous insecticides and detergents may also affect the quality and quantity of sperm, such as chemical laboratory researchers, printing workers, chemical industry workers, pesticide spraying farmers, and lawn mowers. Certain Western Medicines: Antibiotics in certain Western Medicines can affect sperm quality. Temperature: The testicles produce sperm and require a lower temperature environment. Therefore, wearing tight pants or regularly taking saunas can affect the ability to produce sperm and even pose a risk of cancer.
Bad lifestyle habits: Smokers have fewer active sperm and an increase in the number of deformed sperm; Excessive drinking can suppress testosterone, which produces male hormones, leading to a decrease in sperm production. Long sitting: Causes damage to the perineum, susceptibility to prostatitis, and affects sperm production and quality, such as in drivers.
It is precisely for this reason that Director Wang suggests that men who do not have children after marriage or are preparing to have children should first undergo a semen quality test and analysis, so as to have a clear understanding and not go astray.
Clinical significance of prenatal semen examination
According to literature reports, 10% to 15% of married couples suffer from infertility, with male infertility accounting for one-third. Pre pregnancy semen examination can timely detect abnormal semen conditions, clearing the way for normal pregnancy. Because azoospermia, oligospermia, dead sperm, weak sperm, abnormal sperm morphology, low semen volume, poor semen liquefaction, and poor sperm motility are all important causes of male infertility. If the cause cannot be fundamentally identified and effectively treated, it will become impossible for the wife to conceive normally.
In addition, if the semen abnormality is caused by congenital dysplasia, and there is no possibility of cure, it is necessary to take other modern assisted pregnancy technologies while the wife is still young, so as not to cause difficulties in the childbearing and rearing of offspring as the couple grows older. In addition, abnormal semen also indicates a certain degree of low sperm quality, which determines the quality of offspring. Therefore, in order to have a healthy and intelligent baby, it is more important to undergo pre pregnancy semen examination.
18% to 20% of male infertility is caused by chromosomal abnormalities. Chromosome abnormalities account for a considerable proportion in male infertility.
If a man experiences oligospermia or azoospermia, in addition to considering congenital epididymis and vas deferens defects, genital obstruction, retrograde ejaculation, and reproductive tract inflammation, it is also important to consider whether there is a chromosomal issue. Y chromosome microdeletion is one of the common causes of male infertility. Y chromosome microdeletion can be passed down from normal sperm with microdeletion; The microdeletion of Y chromosome can also occur during embryonic development after fertilization by normal sperm; In addition, modern artificial assisted reproduction technology may also carry the Y chromosome.
