Causes of congenital azoospermia

Most male friends know that azoospermia is one of the main causes of male infertility. But when it comes to azoospermia, they will be very puzzled. How can it be divided into congenital and acquired? The following editor will mainly introduce the causes of congenital azoospermia to everyone, hoping to solve everyone's doubts.

Congenital azoospermia can be roughly divided into two categories. The first is caused by the spermatogenesis dysfunction of the testicles themselves, which is equivalent to there being no processing plant to produce products, so there is no product supply; the second is that the spermatogenesis function of the testicles is normal and can produce qualified products, but due to the obstruction of the vas deferens, the sperm produced by the testicles cannot be discharged from the body. This situation is called obstructive azoospermia.

Common causes of congenital azoospermia include:

1. No testicles. Testicles are the only place to produce sperm. Without testicles, there is no sperm. Without testicles, there is no value in treatment.

2. Bilateral cryptic testis. This is when the testicles do not reach the scrotum where they should be, but stay in the abdominal cavity. Since the temperature is much higher than that of the scrotum, sperm cannot be produced at all, and azoospermia will occur. This situation can be treated surgically. It should be noted that the earlier the treatment is, the better the effect will be.

3. Congenital dysgenesis of the spermatic tubules (also known as Kline-Felter syndrome), which is also a developmental cause. Although there is no problem with the position of the testicles, there are also problems with sperm production. If the disease is discovered in time, the condition is not very serious and there is hope for treatment;

4. Genital injury. External injuries leading to testicular injury or torsion, spermatic cord torsion, etc., or trauma caused by hernia repair surgery or prostate surgery, etc., can also affect testicular function and lead to sperm production disorders. This situation mainly requires prevention and timely adoption of effective measures;

5. Radiation exposure. Sperm is very fragile. If it is exposed to strong electromagnetic waves and radiation, it will be destroyed. This cause can only be prevented;

6. Local high temperature of the testicles. Frequent and long-term hot baths, saunas, or other factors that cause the temperature of the testicles to rise will affect sperm production. However, such situations are mostly caused by low sperm count and excessive sperm death. Avoid all factors that increase the temperature of the testicles;

The above is an introduction to the causes of congenital azoospermia. After understanding it, everyone has a certain understanding of it. It is very difficult to treat people with congenital azoospermia. Maintaining proper exercise on a daily basis can not only keep you healthy, but also treat congenital azoospermia.
