2- Mild To Severe Oligospermia
- Oligozoospermia
- Oligozoospermia refers to semen with a low
concentration of sperm and is a common finding in
male infertility. Often semen with a decreased
sperm concentration may also show significant
abnormalities in sperm morphology and motility
(technically oligoasthenoteratozoospermia). - What is a low sperm count?
- A normal count is 80million/hpf 100
million/hpf (taken after 2-3days of
abstinence). - Sources usually classify oligospermia in 3
classes - 1. Mildconcentrations 10 million 20 million
sperm/ml - 2. Moderateconcentrations 5 million 10 million
sperm/ml - 3. evereconcentrations less than 5 million
sperm/ml - Azoospermia (no sperms in the sample)
3- Causes of a low sperm count in males
- Alcohol, smoking , excess weight
- Genetic defects on the Y chromosome (male
chromosome) - Chromosomal abnormality (Klinefelter syndrome)
- Neoplasm, e.g. seminoma, Varicocele (dilatation
of the veins) - Trauma, past operations on the pelvis,
- Drugs(long term steroids, certain antibiotics,
Radiation/Chemotherapy) - Mumps or Malaria ,
- Infection, e.g. prostatitis (Please do not stop
any of your current medication without consulting
a doctor)
4- Diagnosis
- A semen analysis is first needed. If the count is
low blood tests (Serum testosterone and Serum
FSH) are requested to look for hormone
imbalances. If the semen sample suggests
infection then a culture is request and
antibiotics prescribed accordingly. - An ultrasound may be requested and if diagnosed
with a varicocele or hydrocele, a urology opinion
may be sought. - In some of the cases of male infertility, no
clear cause can be identified with current
diagnostic methods. - Treatment
- Medications include Co Q10 Vitamin E can be used
to boost sperm production in men with low sperm
counts and poor sperm motility. - Surgery is often the choice in post testicular
causes such as a varicocele or a hydrocele
although results are not always good.
