For families who want to have a baby, it requires joint efforts from both husband and wife. But there is one situation that can make it difficult to conceive, which is severe oligospermia. It can lead to poor quality of sperm, which can result in a low fertility rate. Is a sperm density of 4.15 million/mL normal? Does it belong to severe oligospermia?
Is a sperm density of 4.15 million/mL normal
The normal sperm density is 20-60 million per milliliter, and a sperm density of 4.15 million per milliliter belongs to oligospermia. Common causes of oligospermia include:
1. Congenital testicular dysplasia or cryptorchidism can cause spermatogenic disorders.
2. Varicocele, testicular hydrocele.
3. Inflammation of the reproductive tract.
4. Immunosuppressive endocrine disorders.
5. Chromosomal abnormalities, especially sex chromosome aberrations, have a serious impact on sperm density, motility, and other factors.
6. The use of drugs that affect sperm production, insecticides, heavy metals, radiation, smoking, and alcohol poisoning can all inhibit sperm production But there is still a portion of patients who cannot find the cause of reduced sperm after various examinations, known as idiopathic oligospermia.
How to treat oligospermia
1. For those with clear etiology, targeted treatment should be given.
2. Testosterone or artificially synthesized testosterone derivatives can be used to treat idiopathic oligospermia with unknown etiology.
Oligospermia is also a great harm to men and can leave psychological trauma. Early detection and treatment can still treat this symptom, but it is relatively difficult. Where there is a solution, there is hope. Men should also maintain good personal hygiene to reduce the occurrence of oligospermia. Men don't need to pay too much attention to this issue, maintaining a good mentality is the most important.
