hi friends well ...^^
healthonlinetips this time will still discuss about the disease in men, which is a problem in sperm.
following explanation:
DEFINITION
To be fertile, a man must be able to issue normal sperm in sufficient quantities to a woman's vagina, and sperm must be able to fertilize the egg. Conditions that interfere with this process can make a man less fertile.
CAUSE
Conditions that increase the temperature of the testes (where sperm is produced) can reduce sperm counts in bulk and vigor of sperm movement can increase the number of abnormal sperm. The temperature may rise to excessive heat-related, disorders that produce long-term fever, undescended testes (a rare disorder present at birth, and varicose veins in the testes (varicocele).
Certain hormones or genetic disorders can hinder sperm production. Hormonal disorders including hyperprolactinemia, hypothyroidusm, hypogonadism, and disorders of the adrenal glands (which produce testosterone and other hormones) or pituitary gland (which controls the production of testosterone). Genetic disorders include abnormalities in sex chromosomes, which occur in Klinefelter syndrome.
Other causes of reduced sperm production, including thyroid disease that affects the testes (mumps orchitis), injury to the testes, associated with industrial or environmental toxins, and drugs. Drugs, including androgens (like testosterone), aspirin when used for long periods, chlorambucil, cimetidine, colchicines, corticosteroids (like prednisone), cotrimoxazole, cyclophosphamide, drugs used to treat malaria, estrogen is used to treat prostate cancer, marijuana , medroxyprogesterone, methotrexate, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs-one type of antidepressant), nicotine, nitrofurantoin, opioids (narcotics), spironolactone, and sulfasalazine.
The use of anabolic steroids can affect hormone levels and thus also inhibits the production of sperm. Excessive alcohol consumption can reduce sperm production. Some disorders result in a complete vacuum on the sperm in the semen (azoospermia). Including a serious disruption of the testis and vasa deferentia blockage or loss, loss of seminal vesicles, and blockage of the second sac ejaculator.
Sometimes, semen, containing sperm, moving in the wrong order (in the bag instead of the penis down). This disorder, called retrograde ejaculation, is more common in men who have diabetes or who have pelvic surgery, such as the removal of the prostate. Infertility can occur.
DIAGNOSIS
The doctor asked the man about the medical history and perform a physical examination to try to identify the cause. The doctor examined the physical abnormalities, such as undescended testes, and signs of hormonal or genetic disorders that can cause infertility. Levels of hormones (including testosterone) may be measured in the blood.
A semen analysis, the primary screening procedure for male infertility, is required.For this procedure, the man asked not to ejaculate for 2 to 3 days before analysis.Then he was asked to ejaculation, usually by masturbation into a clean glass jar, preferably at the laboratory. For men who have difficulty producing a semen sample in this way, a special condom that does not have oil or chemicals toxic to sperm can be used to collect semen during sexual intercourse.
The analysis is based on two or three samples, obtained at least 2 weeks apart, it makes more sense than the analysis based on single samples. The sperm are measured. Does the color and viscosity of cement is normally ascertained.Sperm are examined under a microscope to see if they are not normal in shape, size, movement, or amount.
If the semen sample is abnormal, the possibility of repeated analysis because samples from the same man is normally highly variable. If the cement still looks abnormal, doctors try to identify the cause. Even so, low sperm counts may indicate only too little time has elapsed since the ejaculation or only some of the cement is stored in the shelter. Furthermore, low sperm counts do not mean that the reduced fertility, and normal sperm count does not guarantee fertility.
Tests on the function and quality of sperm can be done. One test detects antibodies to the sperm. Others determine whether the sperm membrane remains intact. Still others can ensure the ability of sperm to obtain more detailed information regarding the production of sperm and testicular function.
TREATMENT
Clomiphene, a drug used to trigger (induce) ovulation in women, may be used to attempt to increase the number of sperm in men. Nevertheless, clomiphene does not increase the ability of sperm to move or reduce the number of abnormal sperm, and not proven to improve fertility.
For men who have a number of normal sperm, artificial insemination may slightly increase the chance of their partners to conceive. This technique uses the first portion diejakulasi semen, sperm is highly viscous. Technique that selects only active sperm (sperm washing) is slightly more successful. In vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm often injected (injecting a single sperm into a single egg cell), and ganete intrafallopian tube transfer (GIFT) is more complex and costly procedures. They managed to treat various types of male infertility.
For the men who produce no sperm, injected the woman with sperm from another man (a donor) may be considered. Because the danger of sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV infection, fresh semen samples from donors should not be used. Instead, frozen sperm samples obtained from a certified sperm bank, which has been testing donors for sexually transmitted diseases.
Varicocele can be treated by surgery. Sometimes an increase in fertility as a result. Male couples who have fertility problems may be treated with human gonadotropins, to stimulate eggs to mature and be released.
