Oligospermia is a disease in which the number of sperm in the semen of fertile men is lower than normal. According to the International Health Organization, male sperm per milliliter is not less than 20 million. If it is less than 20 million, it will be classified as oligospermia, which has a great impact on fertility.
Causes of oligospermia
Varicocele: This disease has a great impact on the development and production of male sperm. The local temperature of the testis rises, and the spermatogenic function of the testis is greatly affected. The sperm is low, which eventually causes oligospermia.
Urinary system infection: If a man suffers from prostatitis, it is often caused by chronic infection of the gonad. Such patients will have a decrease in the number of sperm.
Immune factors: if male friends have anti-sperm antibodies in their bodies, it will lead to obstacles in the production and delivery of sperm, which may eventually lead to oligospermia.
