DESCRIPTION
Infertility is described as an inability to achieve pregnancy after 1 year of sexual activity without contraception. Infertility occurs in 10 to 15 percent of all couples. Fertility depends on the production of normal quantities of healthy sperm, ability to achieve an erection and ejaculation of sperm into the vagina during sexual intercourse. About 30 to 40 percent of infertility causes can be attributed to male partners.
Until recently, infertility was thought to be primarily a female issue, but modern science has pinpointed many problems that can interfere with a man's ability to impregnate a woman. Some of the more common problems affecting men are:
- Azoospermia - no sperm in the ejaculate.
- Oligospermia - low concentrations of sperm in the ejaculate.
- Asthenospermia - sperm are present but can't swim normally.
- Teratospermia - high proportion of abnormally shaped sperm.
- Retrograde ejaculation - the tube through which sperm normally travel is blocked and sperm may end up in the bladder.
FREQUENT SIGNS & SYMPTOMS
Failure to impregnate a fertile woman within one year of unprotected intercourse points to infertility problems. In about 40 percent of these couples, low sperm count, decreased motility and abnormally shaped sperm are to blame.
CAUSES
Anatomical abnormalities of the penis or testicles, including undescended testicles.
Excessive alcohol intake or drug abuse of recreational/street or prescription drugs. Smoking.
Urinary tract infection.
Hormone disturbance.
Endocrine disorders.
Severe chronic or metabolic disorders (such as uremia or cirrhosis).
Mumps.
Use of some drugs, such as antihypertensives, cytotoxic drugs, male hormones and MAO inhibitors.
Sexually transmitted disease, especially syphilis and non-specific urethritis that causes scarring.
Injury to the genitals. Spinal cord injury.
Varicose veins in the testicles (varicocele/vericocele).
Psychological reasons, such as fear of infertility.
Overheating of the testicles caused by vigorous, repetitive exercise or underwear that is too tight and holds the testicles too close to the body (possible).
Intercourse problems, e.g., premature withdrawal, poor timing with menses, too infrequent.
Ejaculatory dysfunction.
Exposure to insecticides or industrial chemicals.
RISK INCREASES WITH
Diabetes mellitus.
Poor nutrition and poor general health.
Smoking (lowers sperm count and reduces erections).
Frequent hot baths and having been very overweight or underweight.
PREVENTIVE MEASURES
Any specific preventive measure depends on the cause.
General lifestyle changes for male infertility may include:
- Stop smoking and reduce alcohol intake.
- Exercise regularly and lose weight if needed.
- Eat a well-balanced diet and reduce stress.
- Wear loose clothing and swap tight briefs for boxer shorts to keep testicles from overheating.
EXPECTED OUTCOME
Some fertility problems are minor and reversible. Often, no clear cause for infertility is found. Approach treatment with optimism.
POSSIBLE COMPLICATIONS
Psychological distress caused by feelings of guilt, inadequacy, and loss of self-esteem.
TREATMENT
GENERAL MEASURES
Laboratory studies, such as blood studies of hormones and semen analysis (to determine quality, quantity, form and motility).
Surgical diagnostic procedures such as testicular biopsy.
Special tests of sperm function and quality are available at major infertility centers.
Psychotherapy or counseling for sexual therapy techniques, marital problems, drug abuse or alcoholism.
Surgery to correct anatomical abnormalities of the reproductive system, e.g., varicocelectomy (surgery for varicocele).
Heat may decrease sperm production in the testicles. To prevent this: Do not wear tight underwear or athletic supporters that hold the testicles too close to the body, do not take hot baths, avoid long bicycle rides.
Have sexual intercourse during the time your partner is ovulating. Do not ejaculate for 3 days prior to intercourse. Intercourse should occur every 36 hours during the fertile period.
Consider other methods for initiating a pregnancy: artificial insemination of washed concentrated sperm; donor insemination if no remedy is presently available; intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) whereby a single sperm is injected into a single egg and the resulting zygote is transferred to the uterus.
