Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern. I checked your report (attachments removed to protect patient's identity). You have oligozoospermia and asthenozoospermia. There are multiple causes for these issues. Oligozoospermia is the sperm count of less than 15 million/mL. It could be due to decreased production or obstruction or block in the passage. The common causes are varicocele, which occurs due to the swelling of veins in testicle and scrotum which could be diagnosed through ultrasound scrotum, infections such as sexually transmitted diseases or non sexually transmitted diseases causing epididymitis and orchitis. It could be diagnosed by ultrasound scrotum, urine complete and CBC (complete blood count) test. Ejaculation problems namely retrograde ejaculation, lack of ejaculation due to diabetes, spinal injuries, and surgery of the bladder, prostate or urethra, anti-sperm antibodies, benign or malignant growth blocking the release of sperm, undescended testicles which are diagnosed through ultrasound scrotum, hormone imbalances, exposure to heavy metals or drugs, over heating of scrotum, alcohol and smoking, and food habits like increased soy food and junk food can also cause it. For temporary solution, I suggest you to take tablet Carni-Q (Levocarnitine, Coenzyme, Zinc, Lycopene and Astaxanthin) twice daily after food. I cannot see white blood cells evidently in your semen report. So, kindly share your full report. Regards.

Thank you for your reply,

I would like to add that my motility was 46 % one year back and now, I have 55 % of motility. But it has gradually decreased and fluctuating.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Yes it can happen in infection too. So once your infection settles down you can expect increase. Some common non specific ways of treatment are taking healthy food such as high colored fruits and vegetables, eggs, dark chocolate, walnuts, environment and work causing increase temperate in scrotum for example, long drive, use of laptop on lap, wearing tight dress, alcohol and smoking, good sleep, regular exercise and avoiding the intake of packed or frozen food.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
