But were too afraid to ask
The inability to conceive naturally is called infertility. In around 40 percent of couples struggling to conceive, the problem may lie with the male partner. In such cases, a semen analysis is suggested. If there is any abnormality in the semen analysis, an Andrologist must be consulted.
The common problems associated with abnormal semen analysis are
- Very few or no sperms
- Sperms are not mobile
- Sperms are abnormal in shape
There are different causes for these problems like varicocele, obstruction of the vas deferens and hormonal imbalances. The best way to deal with this situation is to meet an Andrologist today.
The common causes of male infertility are
- Varicocele – dilated veins in the scrotum
- Obstruction of the vas deferens- The vas deferens is a tube which carries sperm from testis to the water pipe
- Hypogonadism – This is a clinical situation that leads to the arrest in the development of the sperm
- Ejaculatory failure – This is a situation where sperm are not thrown out of the water pipe.
- Erectile dysfunction and irregular sex – These can also be a big reason for infertility.
