Male oligospermia is one of the common diseases among men, and it brings many hazards to men. Male oligospermia seriously affects the fertility of male friends. What are the reasons for male oligospermia? Let's take a closer look.
Six reasons are responsible for men's oligospermia
1. Autoimmunity: Reproductive immunology studies have found that male autoimmune diseases can affect fertility, while antisperm antibodies can affect sperm production and transportation.
2. Chromosome abnormality: Chromosome aberration has a serious impact on sperm density, activity rate, and morphology, resulting in oligospermia.
3. Endocrine abnormalities: Normal spermatogenesis in men depends on the normal functioning of the hypothalamus pituitary gonad axis. Any link disorder can affect spermatogenesis, while other diseases such as thyroid and adrenal diseases can also affect the function of the gonads and cause oligospermia.
4. Varicocele: When varicocele occurs, it raises the local temperature of the testis and increases vasoactive substances, which affects the spermatogenic function of the testis. However, the degree of varicocele is not proportional to the quality of sperm. Varicocele is one of the common causes of oligospermia.
5. Urinary system infection: Chronic infection of the accessory gonads that can affect various laboratory indicators in semen, leading to oligospermia.
6. Cryptorchidism: Cryptorchidism is one of the important reasons that affect semen quality. About 60% of patients with unilateral cryptorchidism are infertile, so if sperm density is low and cryptorchidism is present, early treatment for oligospermia is necessary.
Six Kinds of Food Damage Men's Spirit
1、 Barbecue
Attention should be paid to men who love barbecues in summer. Experts have pointed out that starchy foods such as barbecues and fried foods contain the carcinogenic poison acrylamide, which can lead to male oligospermia and weak sperm. In addition, heavy metal cadmium and pesticide residues are toxic to sperm.
2、 Beer
"If you already have kidney disease and drink unlimited amounts of beer, it can lead to uric acid deposition, leading to renal tubular obstruction, and kidney failure.".
3、 Coffee
The reason why coffee has a refreshing and refreshing effect is that the caffeine it contains stimulates people's sympathetic nerves. "Sympathetic nerves control all activities of the day, and when stimulated, a person's spirit is refreshed and vitality is multiplied.". The parasympathetic nerve specializes in nocturnal physiological, erectile, and other sexual related activities, and its relationship with the sympathetic nerve belongs to the relationship between the surface and the interior. When sympathetic nerve activity is frequent, relatively weak parasympathetic nerves are suppressed, clinically manifested as decreased sexual desire.
4、 Tofu
According to recent reports from multiple media outlets in the United States, a new study from the Harvard School of Public Health has once again made it clear that consuming soy products every day can significantly reduce the sperm count of men.
The study was completed by Dr. George Chavaro of the Harvard School of Public Health. From 2000 to 2006, researchers tracked 99 men. The results are surprising: Men who eat soy products every day have only 41 million sperm per milliliter of semen, significantly lower than men who eat less soy products. It is understood that if the number of sperm per milliliter of semen is less than 20 million, it belongs to low sperm concentration and is prone to infertility. In addition, this link is more evident in obese men.
5、 Milk tea
At present, the pearl milk tea on the market is mostly made of milk essence, pigment, essence, cassava powder (referring to the pearl in milk tea) and tap water. The main component of creamer is hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is a trans fatty acid. Trans fatty acids can reduce the secretion of male hormones, have a negative impact on sperm activity, and interrupt the reaction process of sperm in the body.
In fact, the foods we often eat, such as cookies, crackers, pastries, chocolate, salad dressing, French fries, donuts, cream cakes, pancakes, potato chips, and fried dry noodles, all contain unequal amounts of trans fatty acids.
6、 Pork loin
Many people like to eat animal offal, especially when eating barbecue, "waist" has become the favorite of many men. Recently, doctors in Taiwan warned that eating viscera to strengthen the body and beware of heavy metal "cadmium" damaging sperm and infertility.
