What Is Male Infertility?
Male infertility refers to reproductive problems related to sperm production, sperm quality, or sperm delivery.
Common Causes
Male infertility can result from low sperm count, poor sperm motility, abnormal morphology, hormonal imbalances, varicocele, genetic conditions, or lifestyle factors. A semen analysis is the primary diagnostic tool.
Treatment Options
Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include lifestyle changes, medication, surgical correction, or assisted reproduction techniques such as ICSI, where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg.
