What is male infertility?
Male infertility refers to infertility caused by male factors, and it is generally referred to as infertility when the woman does not get pregnant after living together for more than 2 years without any contraception. The incidence of male infertility is about 10%, of which the female factor alone is about 50%, the male factor alone is about 30%, and the male and female factor together is about 20%. Clinically, male infertility is divided into two categories: sexual dysfunction and normal sexual function, and the latter can be further divided into azoospermia, oligospermia weak spermia, sperm weakness, and sperm count normal infertility based on semen analysis. In recent years, as people’s awareness of human reproductive problems has increased and male science has developed at a rapid pace, the detection rate of male infertility has gradually increased, which has attracted the great attention of male scientists.
