Asthenospermia is a type of abnormal sperm and semen in men. After this disease occurs, it has an impact on the health of male friends and even makes them infertile. Asthenozoospermia has a lot of impact on patients and brings a lot of harm to men.

The examinations required to diagnose asthenozoospermia include:

1. Testicular biopsy: By understanding the spermatogenic function of the testicular seminiferous tubules and the development of Leydig cells, immunohistochemical staining reflects the synthesis and metabolism of local hormones.

2. Endocrine examination: Understand the function of the hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis, measuring testosterone levels reflects the function of interstitial cells, and can also measure thyroid hormone, adrenocortical hormone or prolactin.

3. Asthenozoospermia ratio examination: Poor sperm motility in men is not necessarily a symptom of male asthenozoospermia. Clinically, the definition of male asthenospermia is that in three consecutive semen tests, less than 25% of grade A sperm or less than 50% of grade A plus grade B sperm.

4. Understanding the medical history: Understanding the male medical history can help men better understand the reasons for abnormal sperm motility. Among them, it is mainly to understand whether men have a history of reproductive system inflammation or other diseases that affect sperm motility.

What causes asthenospermia?

1. Long-term abstinence and long-term non-ejaculation tend to have high sperm density, many dead sperm, and poor sperm mobility. This situation is normal, so it is advisable to abstain from sex for 5 to 7 days before checking semen.

2. Reproductive system infections, such as prostatitis, orchitis, etc. Reproductive system infections change the composition of seminal plasma. Reductions in zinc, magnesium, citric acid, fructose, and increases in pH will affect sperm motility.

3. Varicocele, due to blood circulation disorders in the testicles and epididymis, local temperature rise, and accumulation of toxic substances, resulting in low sperm motility. If you have qualitatively diagnosed asthenozoospermia, further examination is needed to clarify the cause of asthenozoospermia and targeted treatment.

Daily care methods for asthenospermia

1. Pay attention to health care and pay attention to the maintenance of kidney essence: Some male friends are usually busy with work and don’t care about health care. But "men's health care is extremely important." The first thing in men's health care is to focus on adjusting the diet structure and replenishing kidney essence; the second thing is to reduce the consumption of kidney essence, pay attention to acquired care, and strengthen the supplement and maintenance of kidney essence, which is very effective.

2. Reduce infection and promote hygienic sexual life: Reproductive tract infection has a great lethality on sperm vitality. Infection of semen will significantly affect sperm motility. Young people's chances of infection mainly come from unclean sex and activities such as saunas, so sex must be safe and hygienic. If you find a disease, don't take it lightly. Once you miss the opportunity for treatment, you may develop a chronic reproductive tract infection.

3. Adjust your daily life to provide a livable environment for sperm: Bad living habits such as irregular living, spicy food, sitting for long periods of time, etc. will lead to a decrease in sperm motility. Therefore, you should be careful not to be addicted to alcohol or spicy food, wear no or less jeans, and avoid working environments with high temperatures and radiation. Sperm are very delicate and fragile, so they should maintain sufficient energy to provide them with an environment suitable for growth and life.
