Obstructive azoospermia, as the name suggests, refers to the problem of sperm movement caused by fallopian tube obstruction, which is one of the causes of infertility. Infertility has a significant impact on family life, but with the improvement of medical technology, it is now possible to treat these infertility issues. So, how to treat obstructive azoospermia?
How to treat obstructive azoospermia?
There are two treatments for obstructive azoospermia, one is in vitro fertilization, and the other is microsurgical reconstruction surgery.
1. In vitro fertilization
It is a method of extracting a small amount of sperm from a male by puncturing the testicles or epididymis, and at the same time extracting the partner's egg. The sperm is injected into the egg outside the body to cultivate a fertilized egg, which is then implanted into the female uterine cavity. This method is most suitable for women who suffer from diseases such as fallopian tube obstruction at the same time.
2. Microscopic reconstruction surgery
This is a new technology developed internationally and domestically in recent years, which is a blessing for patients with obstructive azoospermia. It mainly targets the most common group of patients with epididymal and vas deferens obstruction in China. There are mainly two types of surgeries, such as microsurgical epididymal vasectomy and microsurgical epididymal vasectomy. The method is to locate the obstructed epididymal duct during surgery and reconnect the unobstructed vas deferens with the obstructed epididymal duct. That is to say, leave the blocked part of the pipeline vacant and rebuild a smooth pipeline to achieve the smooth passage of sperm.
Daily precautions for obstructive azoospermia
1. Smoking and drinking cessation: Data shows that smoking and alcohol consumption are the main factors causing a decrease in sperm quantity and quality.
2. Regular check ups: Bacterial infection is also an important factor in male infertility, and it is recommended to visit a doctor regularly to undergo relevant tests for chlamydia and prostate.
3. Regular exercise: Excessive obesity in men can lead to an increase in temperature in the groin area, which can damage sperm growth and ultimately result in infertility. Therefore, controlling weight within the standard range can improve the quality of sperm.
4. Relax your mind: Excessive mental stress can also have a negative impact on sperm growth, so men should relax themselves appropriately.
5. Avoid going to saunas and steam baths: High temperature steam baths directly harm sperm and inhibit sperm production.
6. Eat more green food: Green vegetables contain ingredients such as vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, etc. that are beneficial for sperm growth.
