Medical Conditions - Oligospermia

Decreased sperm count, which is less than 15 million sperm per millimeter of semen, is called oligospermia. It is manifested by erectile dysfunction, pain or swelling in the testicles, and reduced facial or body hair. Causes are medical, environmental, and lifestyle. Epididymitis, infection of the testis, varicocele, retrograde ejaculation, undescended testis, hormone imbalance, chemotherapy, chromosomal abnormalities, vasectomy, celiac diseases, tumors, and previous surgeries, etc., are a few of the medical causes of oligospermia. Chemicals or heavy metals exposure, increased temperature, or radiation exposure are the environmental causes. Treating the cause along with medications, psychotherapy, and assistive reproductive technology are the treatment options available.
