What can be done to lower pus cells and improve sperm count?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I did a sperm analysis, and the results revealed significant pus cells eight to ten, resulting in a low sperm count of 5.2 million. Could you kindly recommend a medication to reduce or eliminate these pus cells and boost sperm count?

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I suggest you take a tablet of Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) 500 mg twice daily for two weeks and then repeat the sperm analysis. Consult your doctor and take the medicine accordingly.

If your counts remain low, you should examine your scrotum for varicocele (an enlargement of the veins within the scrotum). Please keep me updated on your condition.

I hope that you get your answer.

Please let me know if you need any help.

Thank you.
