Infertility (sperm quality decline) In our ancient country, people have always blamed women for infertility, especially in rural areas. In fact, there are many factors in infertility. According to the World Health Organization, there are 60 to 80 million couples with infertility in the world, and about 50% of infertile couples are caused by male infertility.
In recent years, there have been continuous reports at home and abroad that the quality of male sperm has a downward trend. The Danish scholar Schalkbach analyzed the semen of 1500 men in 21 countries around the world. The results showed that the number of male sperm has decreased by 40% in the past half century.
Sexual dysfunction Sexual dysfunction is also a major category of andrology diseases, including ED (erectile dysfunction), premature ejaculation, strong yang and non-ejaculation, among which ED has the greatest impact and is the most common. According to foreign statistics, 52% of men over the age of 40 may suffer from ED, and at least 100 million men worldwide suffer from different degrees of ED.
The occurrence of sexual dysfunction is often closely related to hypertension, ischemic heart disease, peripheral vascular disease and diabetes. About 15% of hypertension patients can have erectile dysfunction, 39% of heart disease patients have complete erectile dysfunction, and 28% of diabetes patients can have erectile dysfunction.
Prostate diseases, including acute and chronic prostatitis, prostatic effusion and prostatic hyperplasia, are the two major types of male diseases. Prostate disease is characterized by its high incidence in the population and easy to cause other male diseases, forming the third largest disease category in the andrology department.
Chronic prostatitis is the most common type of male reproductive system. It usually occurs in young and middle-aged men aged 20-40 years, with a high incidence rate. According to statistics, 35% to 40% of men over 35 years old suffer from this disease, accounting for about 1/4 of male patients in urology department. Chronic prostatitis itself has no serious consequences and does not affect life and work. However, the mental burden caused by sexual dysfunction and reproductive disorders such as erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation often exceeds the disease itself. Prostatic hyperplasia is a common disease in elderly men. A group of foreign literature reports that more than half of men over 50 years old have prostatic hyperplasia.
