8. Causes
1)Genetic
ā¢ Abnormal Y chromosome & XXY in klinefelterās
syndrome
2) Disorders of spermatogenesis
ā¢ a) Hormonal (pre- testicular)
ā¢ Hypothalamic disorder
ā¢ Pituitary secretion of FSH,LH
ā¢ Hyperprolactinaemia causing impotence or diminished
libido
ā¢ Hypothyroidism, adrenal gland disorder & diabetes
9. b) Primary testicular disorders (testicular)
ā¢ idiopathic, varicocle
ā¢ chromosomal defect, i.e. klinefelterās syndrome
ā¢ cryptorchism
ā¢ drugs, radiation, calcium channel blockers,
anticonvulsants, antihypertensive, spironolactone
& cimetidine
ā¢ orchitis (traumatic, mumps, TB, gonorrhea)
ā¢ chronic illness
ā¢ Immunological disorders (5%)
ā¢ Immobility due to absence of dynein arms.
Absent cilia in kartgenerās syndrome (15%)
10. 3) Duct obstruction ( post- testicular)
Congenital absence, inflammatory block
(gonococcal, tubercular), surgical trauma,
youngās syndrome (inspissated mucus)
associated with sinusitis & bronchiectasis,
chlamydial infection.
4) Accessory gland disorders
Prostatitis, vesiculitis & congenital absence
of vas in cystic fibrosis
11. 5) Disorders of sperm & vesicular fluid
ā¢ Sperm antibodies & low fructose in seminal
plasma. Immotile cilia syndrome (kartagenerās
syndrome)
ā¢ sperm acrosome defect
ā¢ zona pellucida binding defect
ā¢ zona penetration defect
ā¢ oocyte fusion defect
6) Sexual dysfunctions
ā¢ low frequency coitus ā wrong time
ā¢ impotence, hypospadias, decreased libido
ā¢ premature ejaculation
ā¢ retrograde ejaculation
12. 7) Psychological & environmental factors
Like smoking, alcohol consumption, tobacco
chewing, diabetes & drugs ā antihypertensive,
antipsychotics, cimetidine, sex steroids (excess
testosterone & anabolic used by athletes)
chemotherapy, nitrofurantoin, Ī²- blockers,
spironolactone, oestrogen.
8) Other causes
ā¢ being in high heat for prolonged periods

ā¢ Blood test to check hormone levels
ā¢ Ultrasound of the male genitals
ā¢ Testicular biopsy
ā¢ Immunological test
ā¢ Patency of vas
ā¢ Chromosomal study

ā¢ Semen cervical mucous

17. MANAGEMENT OF MALE
INFERTILITY
Management is mainly based on the assessment of coital
functions, semen examination & the result of the postcoital
& immunological tests, as well as hormonal reports.
ā¢ Education
ā¢ Substance abuse
Advice on avoidance of tobacco (smoking, chewing),
moderation in consumption of alcohol & avoidance of drug
abuse.
ā¢ Reduce heat around the scrotum
ā¢ Correct endocrinopathies
Prompt attention to diabetes & thyroid disorders
18. ā¢ Hormone therapy Various regimens have been
applied with variable results. Like:
hCG, testosterone, clomiphene, Human
menopausal gonadotropine (hMG), GnRH,
tamoxifen, dexamethasone, sildenafil (Viagra)
ā¢ ix) Artificial insemination
19. Management of azoospermia
ā¢ With oligospermia or abnormal semen, obstructive as
well as non-obstructive azoospermia, the couple may
be offered:-
ā¢ In vitro fertilization (IVF)
ā¢ Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) technique
ā¢ Micro assisted fertilization (MAF) technique
ā¢ Microsurgical epididymal sperm aspiration (MESA) or
percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration (PESA)
ā¢ Testicular biopsy, sperm retrieval & MESA supersede
other methods in modern treatment of male infertility
& with improved success.
20.
21. Prevention
Some strategies suggested or proposed for avoiding male
infertility include the following:-
ā¢ Avoiding smoking as it damages sperm DNA
ā¢ Avoiding heavy marijuana & alcohol use
ā¢ Avoiding excessive heat to the testis
ā¢ Sperm counts can be depressed by daily coital activity and
sperm motility may be depressed by coital activity that take
place too infrequently (abstinence 10-14 or more)
ā¢ When participating in sports such as baseball, football,
cricket, hockey, wrestling, karate etc. wear a protective cup
& jockstrap to protect the testicles.
