Dear Sasi Kumar The commonest cause of male infertility is a low sperm count but some men are infertile because of poor sperm motility. Sperm motility is the ability to move. This condition is called asthenospermiaor asthenozoospermia. Often, the two often co-exist, and this is called oligoasthenospermia. Sperm motility can only be assessed when a semen analysis is performed in the laboratory. No patient ever wants to hear the truth that there is really no effective treatment available today for increasing the sperm motility . The treatment which is given by some doctors is best considered "experimental" and can be tried as a therapeutic trial. Make sure, however, that semen is examined for improvement after three months and then decide whether you want to press on regardless. With regards MK Gupta |
