Male infertility is the inability of a man to successfully fertilize a woman’s egg. Male infertility can be caused by any number of factors, including low sperm motility, abnormal sperm shape, varicocele, oligospermia (low sperm count) and so on.

Male factor infertility refers to the failure of a couple to achieve conception due to problems specifically related to the man’s sperm, seminal fluid, or reproductive organs. There are several conditions that contribute to male factor infertility and they are discussed below as well as solution;

Abnormal Semen

Abnormal semen is a form of male infertility that presents itself in a variety of ways. When there are problems with the semen, the sperm might be prevented from achieving fertilization.

Abnormal Semen Symptoms

A basic examination and semen evaluation is necessary to determine conclusively whether there is a semen abnormality; however, some of the most common symptoms of this disorder include;

Yellow or greenish semen
Red or brown tinted semen (may indicate blood in the ejaculate)
Ejaculate with an especially strong, foul odor
Abnormally thick ejaculate
Watery ejaculate
Low volume of semen

Causes And Treatment for Men with Abnormal Semen

Some of the causes of abnormal semen, such as STDs, infection, retrograde ejaculation, and the ability of the ejaculate to clot properly, can significantly affect male fertility. If you have experienced any of these symptoms, you might have a serious infection leading to male infertility. Click here to read about a natural way to treat abnormal semen.

Male factor infertility can also be caused by abnormalities in the shape and size of the sperm. As with low sperm count, at least two-thirds of the sperm in the ejaculate must be of an adequate shape and size in order to be considered normal. Male infertility can result when the sperm’s shape prevents it from having normal mobility or strength to penetrate the ovum. In fact, some specialists believe that abnormal sperm shape has an even greater effect on male fertility than low motility or oligospermia (low sperm count).

A semen test can reveal whether the sperm are of normal shape and size. Some of the common sperm abnormalities are;

A very large round head
An extremely small pinpoint head
A tapered head
A crooked head
Two heads
A tail with kinks and curls

Azoospermia (No Sperm)

Azoospermia refers to a condition in which there is no measurable (zero) amount of sperm in the semen, which is usually discovered through semen analysis. A diagnosis of azoospermia doesn’t mean that conception is impossible. Many causes of azoospermia can be successfully treated to restore fertility in men.

Azoospermia Causes: Azoospermia can be caused from a transport problem when there is a blockage that prevents sperm from mixing with semen (obstructive azoospermia), or from a problem with the production of sperm (non-obstructive azoospermia).

Sperm Transport Problems: Sperm is transported from the testes to the urethra through a series of ducts, and blockages within these ducts can prevent sperm from mixing with the ejaculate before it leaves the body. Causes of these transport problems can include infections such as STDs, vasectomy, or a congenital absence of the vas deferens (tubes that transport sperm to the urethra).

Sperm Production Problems: Sperm production problems may be caused by a dysfunction within the testes resulting from hormonal imbalances, trauma, or a condition called cryptorchidism (undescended testicles).

Treatments for Azoospermia

In many cases, the sperm transport and production problems that cause azoospermia can be treated, restoring sperm to the semen. Treatment may involve...read more at https://planbwellness.com/overcoming-male-infertility-naturally/
