Male Infertility in Dubai

Male infertility can have various underlying causes that affect the production, transport, or quality of sperm. Here are some of the common causes of male infertility:

1. Low sperm count: Oligospermia, or low sperm count, is a significant cause of male infertility. This can be due to hormonal imbalances, genetic disorders, varicoceles (swollen veins in the scrotum), or exposure to environmental toxins.
2. Abnormal sperm: Abnormalities in sperm, such as low motility, abnormal morphology, or poor quality, can affect fertility. These can be caused by genetic disorders, infections, or exposure to toxins such as chemotherapy drugs or radiation.
3. Blockages: Blockages in the male reproductive system can prevent the transport of sperm, leading to infertility. This can be due to vasectomy, cystic fibrosis, or infections such as sexually transmitted diseases.
4. Hormonal imbalances: Hormonal imbalances such as low testosterone levels can impact sperm production and fertility. Hormonal imbalances can be due to conditions such as pituitary gland disorders or thyroid problems.
5. Testicular injury: Injury to the testicles can damage the sperm-producing cells, leading to male infertility. This can be due to injury during surgery or trauma such as a sports injury.
6. Medications: Certain medications such as chemotherapy drugs or hormone treatments can damage sperm production and lead to infertility.
7. Lifestyle factors: Poor lifestyle habits such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, drug use, and obesity can all impact male fertility. These can affect the quality and quantity of sperm.
8. Environmental factors: Exposure to environmental toxins such as pesticides, lead, or radiation can impact male fertility by damaging the sperm-producing cells.
9. Genetic disorders: Certain genetic disorders, such as Klinefelter’s syndrome or Y-chromosome microdeletions, can cause male infertility by affecting sperm production or transport.
